pdfimages(1)						      General Commands Manual						      pdfimages(1)

NAME

       pdfimages - Portable Document Format (PDF) image extractor (version 2.01)

SYNOPSIS

       pdfimages [options] PDF-file image-root

DESCRIPTION

       Pdfimages saves images from a Portable Document Format (PDF) file as Portable Pixmap (PPM), Portable Bitmap (PBM), or JPEG files.

       Pdfimages  reads the PDF file, scans one or more pages, PDF-file, and writes one PPM, PBM, or JPEG file for each image, image-root-nnn.xxx,
       where nnn is the image number and xxx is the image type (.ppm, .pbm, .jpg).

CONFIGURATION FILE

       Pdfimages reads a configuration file at startup.  It first tries to find the user's private config file, ~/.xpdfrc.  If that doesn't exist,
       it  looks  for  a  system-wide  config  file,  typically  /etc/xpdfrc  (but this location can be changed when pdfimages is built).  See the
       xpdfrc(5) man page for details.

OPTIONS

       Many of the following options can be set with configuration file commands.  These are listed in square brackets with the description of the
       corresponding command line option.

       -f number
	      Specifies the first page to scan.

       -l number
	      Specifies the last page to scan.

       -j     Normally,  all images are written as PBM (for monochrome images) or PPM (for non-monochrome images) files.  With this option, images
	      in DCT format are saved as JPEG files.  All non-DCT images are saved in PBM/PPM format as usual.

       -opw password
	      Specify the owner password for the PDF file.  Providing this will bypass all security restrictions.

       -upw password
	      Specify the user password for the PDF file.

       -q     Don't print any messages or errors.  [config file: errQuiet]

       -v     Print copyright and version information.

       -h     Print usage information.	(-help and --help are equivalent.)

EXIT CODES

       The Xpdf tools use the following exit codes:

       0      No error.

       1      Error opening a PDF file.

       2      Error opening an output file.

       3      Error related to PDF permissions.

       99     Other error.
