Today I learned about pdftoppm, a simple CLI tool that can convert each page of a PDF into separate image files. My use case was to chop up a few big PDF reports to make OCR and data analysis easier, but scanning them a page at a time. Install I’m using Homebrew on macOS, but Poppler will also run on Linux and other operating systems. $ brew install poppler Quick Usage $ pdftoppm -png -rx 300 -ry 300 input.
