Request: packer to pack/extract JPG's in/from PDF

MaxX · Post by *MaxX » 2012-08-31, 19:06 UTC

I have lots of PDF scans of diffrent documents; pages are saved as BMP/PNG/JPG/TIFF inside.

I need a wcx-plugin for extracting JPG's from the inside (as they are) with no recompressing and loosing quality, and (optionally) for packing PDF's from existing JPG's.

It's very important for me.

hi MaxX it's not a packer plugin but a command line utility, use pdfimages part of xpdf (freeware) here's a win32 link the gui doesn't work on Windows as it uses the X server.
ftp://ftp.foolabs.com/pub/xpdf/xpdfbin-win-3.03.zip
use the -j flag to extract jpg's from pdf's without recompressing.

As for making pdf's from jpeg's (or other common image formats) you can try i2pdf it's a freeware 32/64 bit utility you can get it from http://luis.no-ip.net/
