Re: FN-FORUM: PDF image and text extraction

I've never really looked into this before but if I've ever wanted or needed
an image out of a pdf document i've either used the selection tool to copy
and paste into photoshop or something similar or do a screen shot of the
image and paste that, rather simple and not very professional but it works
for me.
