EXTRACTJPGS(1)

📦 version 1.60, in nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

🎀 extractjpgs.pl — the manual, but make it make sense 🎀

hey bestie, welcome to extractjpgs.pl, part of the Perl-verse (specifically perl v5.42.3 documentation, dated 2013-08-15 — vintage, honestly 💅). This little icon's whole job? Saving copies of all the PDF JPG images into a directory. That's it. That's the gig. 👑

✨ NAME ✨

extractjpgs.pl — save copies of all PDF JPG images to a directory 🖼️

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

extractjpgs.pl [options] infile.pdf outdirectory

Options:

  -S --skip=imnum     don't output the specified images (can be used mutliple times)
  -v --verbose        print diagnostic messages
  -h --help           verbose help message
  -V --version        print CAM::PDF version

so like, imnum is a comma-separated list of integers indicating the images in the order that they appear in the PDF. fr fr, that's the ordering. 🫶

💡 pro tip straight from the page itself: use listimages.pl to retrieve the image numbers. it's giving "look up the address before you drive there," yk? 🗺️

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so first thing, no cap: this requires the ImageMagick convert program to be available. if you don't have it, bestie, nothing's happening. ✋

What it actually does: it searches the PDF for JPG images and saves them as individual files in the directory you specified. The files are named <imnum>.jpg. ✨ literal perfection, no notes.
