Free PDF to JPG

Free PDF to JPG is a command-line utility you can use to extract images from PDF documents and save them as JPEG files. It can be tackled not only by experienced users, but also those unfamiliarized with CLI tools.

The usage is p2j file.pdf, so all you have to do is specify the name of the PDF document you're attempting to extract images from. After hitting the Enter key, the extracted items are automatically created in a subfolder called "PDF_to_JPG_files". This name or location cannot be changed.

If it already exists, the tool fails to work, since it cannot overwrite the existing folder or create a new one with a different name. The amount of read bytes and number of extracted files are shown at the end of the task. If the job fails or there are no graphical elements present in the PDF file, the app creates an empty subfolder, so make sure to delete it before proceeding with a new task.

There is no setup pack involved, which makes Free PDF to JPG portable. It means that you can drop the downloaded files to a custom directory on the disk or copy them to a removable storage device to seamlessly run it on any computer with a little effort as possible, by just calling its process from a Command Prompt dialog. It doesn't make any changes to your system registry or need DLLs or other components to run.

It worked smoothly in our tests, without triggering the operating system to hang, crash or indicate errors. Image extraction jobs were carried out swiftly while Free PDF to JPG remained light on system resources consumption. Too bad that it's not capable of extracting images from multiple PDFs at the same time.
