Extract Attachments

Pull out every embedded attachment from one or more PDF files. All extracted files are bundled into a single ZIP archive for download.

How It Works

1. Upload one or more PDF files that contain embedded attachments.
2. Click Extract Attachments.
3. The tool scans each PDF for document-level and page-level attachments.
4. All found files are packaged into a ZIP archive and downloaded automatically.
5. A status message confirms how many attachments were found and their total size.

Features

• Batch extraction from multiple PDFs at once
• Extracts both document-level and page-level attachments
• Outputs a single ZIP file containing all extracted files
• Displays total attachment count and combined file size
• Clear status messages if no attachments are found

Use Cases

• Recovering data files embedded in a report PDF
• Pulling image assets out of a portfolio or specification document
• Extracting supplementary materials from training or compliance PDFs
• Auditing what files are embedded inside a batch of PDFs

Tips

• If the tool reports no attachments, the PDF may contain embedded images or form data instead -- those are not file attachments. Use Extract Images for embedded images.
• When processing multiple PDFs, all attachments from every file end up in one ZIP. File names are preserved from the original embeddings.
