# 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](./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.
