       pdfimages - Portable Document Format (PDF) image extractor

       pdfimages [options] PDF-file image-root

       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).

       NB:  pdfimages  extracts  the raw image data from the PDF file, without
       performing any additional transforms.  Any  rotation,  clipping,  color
       inversion, etc. done by the PDF content stream is ignored.

                                                                            ()

2 ONFIGURATION_FIL

       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 /usr/local/etc/xpdfrc
       (but this location can be changed when pdfimages is  built).   See  the
       xpdfrc(5) man page for details.

                                                                            ()

2 OPTIONS

       Many  of  the following options can be set with configuration file com-
       mands.  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.)

                                                                            ()

2 XIT_CODE

       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.

                                                                            ()
