Node.js Tutorial to Export All Pages of PDF Document to Images and Save it in Javascript

Welcome folks today in this blog post we will be using the pdf-export-images library to export all the pages of the pdf document and save it as images in terminal. All the full source code of the application is shown below.

Get Started

In order to get started you need to make a new node.js project using the below command

npm init -y

npm i pdf-export-images

And now you will see the below directory structure of the node.js app as shown below

And now we need to go inside the package.json file and add the type property inside the package.json file as shown below

package.json

And now you need to make a new file called index.js and copy paste the following code

index.js

import { exportImages } from 'pdf-export-images'
exportImages('pdf.pdf', 'uploads')
  .then(images => console.log('Exported', images.length, 'images'))
  .catch(console.error)

import { exportImages } from 'pdf-export-images'

exportImages('pdf.pdf', 'uploads')

.then(images => console.log('Exported', images.length, 'images'))

.catch(console.error)

And now inside the above code we are importing the pdf-export-images library and then we are providing the uploads folder to store the exported images and then we are also providing the input pdf file called pdf.pdf.
