Pro tips

  • v1 extracts JPEG-encoded photos; vector diagrams and pure raster masks are excluded.
  • If you need a screenshot of the entire page layout rather than individual photos, use PDF to JPG instead.
  • If the document contains no embedded JPEG images, an alert will let you know immediately.
