To retrieve an image from a PDF file, unique techniques are required as direct extraction is not allowed. To guide readers on cutting images from PDFs to Word, TechTricksHub.com presents the following methods.
1. Utilize online tools to separate images
1.1. PDF to Image
Website Address: PDF TO IMAGE
Access the PDF Image website, which boasts a user-friendly interface.
Click on UPLOAD FILE to upload the PDF file containing the desired images to the website.
After selecting the file to upload, it will take a moment for the upload to be successful.
After successfully uploading the file, click on the DOWNLOAD link below the uploaded file (or click DOWNLOAD ALL if you're downloading multiple PDF files at once).
After downloading the zip file containing the images, open the folder containing that compressed file.
Proceed to extract the contents of that folder as usual, right-click and select Extract Here.
After extracting, you will see that your PDF file has been compressed into images resembling printed pages. Now, simply insert the images into your Word document.
1.2. PDF Delight
Website Address: PDF CANDY
Visit the website and click on Choose file, prominently displayed on the website.
Select the PDF file you wish to extract images from your computer's directory. After uploading the file, wait a moment for the website to finish extracting the images.
Next, you'll see the Download file button displayed. Click here to download the extracted image files.
After downloading the compressed image file, open the folder containing the downloaded file.
Proceed to extract the image files by right-clicking on the zip file and selecting Extract Here.
Thus, you have retrieved all the images embedded in that PDF file. The remaining task is simply to insert the extracted images into your Word document.
2. Capture Images Using Screen Capture
Nowadays, all PDF reader software will have the capability to capture images within their documents. TechWiz.com will demonstrate using the popular Foxit Reader software.
First, you need to open the PDF file from which you want to capture images.
Next, locate the SnapShot feature within the interface of this file. With Foxit Reader, it's located under the Tools tab of the Home ribbon on the toolbar.
Alternatively, you can use the key combination Alt + 7 to perform a similar function.
Other PDF reader software will also have the SnapShot feature, so you can search for a similar name.
After you click on this feature, your mouse cursor will change to a plus sign icon.
You can click and drag to create a rectangular area around the image.
The selected area will be covered in a green shade, creating an image in your clipboard.
At this point, you simply need to paste the image from this clipboard into your desired location in Word. You can right-click and select Paste, or use the Ctrl V shortcut.
However, it's important to note that images captured from PDFs will have pixel dimensions equal to the size of the images displayed on your computer screen.
Therefore, to have larger captured images, you need to zoom in on the page so that the images on the page are displayed larger as well.
Click on the plus sign icon to zoom in at the bottom right corner of the PDF reader software interface.
Once you feel the image is displayed large enough, perform the SnapShot to capture the image.
Now you have a larger image.
