💖 NAME 💖

extractjpgs — bestie, this saves copies of all the JPG images inside a PDF into a directory. every single one. slay. 🎀

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

extractjpgs [options] infile.pdf outdirectory

okay so here's the whole options menu, no gatekeeping:

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

imnum is a comma-separated list of integers — it's telling you which images, in the order they show up in the PDF. and use listimages to retrieve the image numbers, like that's your little lookup bestie, don't guess. 💅

🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

• -S, --skip=imnum — skips the image(s) you name so they don't get written out. and the way you can stack this — use it multiple times if you've got several you're over. 🙈
• -v, --verbose — prints diagnostic messages, so you can see what's going on instead of just vibing in silence.
• -h, --help — gives you the verbose help message. ask and you shall receive. 🫶
• -V, --version — prints the CAM::PDF version. iconic info.

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

requires the ImageMagick convert program to be available. no convert, no vibes. 😭

so what it does: it searches the PDF for JPG images and saves them as individual files in the directory you specified. main character behaviour fr fr. 🌈

the files get named like this, exactly:

<imnum>.jpg

like <imnum> gets swapped for the actual image number, iykyk. 💜
