Each image extracted is numbered consecutively in the following format: <Image prefix name>_0001.jpg
A new column is created for the results.
A common use for this function is when a PDF contains small images that need to be keep separately, such as photos from a brochure or graphs from a report.

- If there is no image information in the PDF's metadata, no images can be extracted.
- In this case, Automation Hero recommend using the PDF to Image function to capture the desired data.
- Support for PDF file size up to 100MB. Larger PDF files may lead to out-of-memory issues by exceeding the default runner memory limit.
- Unsupported for JPEG2000 image compression files libraries by default.
