How to Extract Attachments from a PDF

  • Upload the PDF that contains embedded file attachments.
  • Click Extract Attachments to list all embedded files.
  • Download individual attachments or click Download All to save them at once.

Example

A project submission PDF bundles a 2 MB spreadsheet and a 500 KB image as embedded attachments. This tool extracts both files, showing their names and sizes, and lets you download each one separately.

Common Use Cases

  • Recovering data files, images, or source code bundled inside a PDF report.
  • Extracting supplementary materials attached to academic papers or government filings.
  • Pulling embedded resources from PDFs created by design or engineering tools.

FAQ

  • What if no attachments are found? Not all PDFs contain attachments. Only files that were explicitly embedded by the PDF creator will appear here.
  • What file types can be extracted? Any file type that was embedded in the PDF — there is no restriction on format or extension.
  • Is my file uploaded anywhere? No — extraction happens entirely in your browser.
