Getting Text and Images Back Out of a PDF

PDFs are great for distribution and terrible for reuse — the moment you need to edit the text, grab a chart image, or drop a page into a slide deck as a picture, the format works against you rather than for you.

Getting the words back out

Copy-pasting text out of a PDF often brings along broken line breaks and odd spacing, especially from multi-column layouts. Extract Text from PDF pulls the text out cleanly, grouped back into readable paragraphs.

Getting the pictures back out

A chart, diagram or photo embedded in a PDF is not something you can simply right-click and save in most viewers. Extract Images from PDF finds and exports every embedded image in the document.

Treating a page as a picture

Sometimes what you actually want isn't the text or the embedded images, but the whole page rendered as an image — for a thumbnail, a preview, or dropping straight into a presentation. PDF to Image renders each page at a resolution you choose.

All three read the PDF's structure directly in your browser — nothing is uploaded to extract the content back out.
