Extract Images from PDF: how it works
PDF Care scans selected page drawing operations for embedded raster image objects and exports supported images as PNG. This is different from PDF to PNG or JPG, which renders the entire page.

Questions about Extract PDF Images
Are files uploaded when I use Extract PDF Images?
No. PDF Care processes this tool locally in your browser, so the document contents are not uploaded to a PDF Care application server.
Is this the same as PDF to PNG?
No. PDF to PNG renders the entire page. Extract PDF Images attempts to recover raster image objects embedded in the PDF.
Why might a PDF contain no extractable images?
Some PDFs contain only vector graphics, text, masks or complex image data that is not exposed as a standalone raster image.
