Extract embedded images from a Word document

Use jetformat word extract-images to extract embedded images from a Word document.

By Jetformat

Extract the embedded picture assets when you need originals. This does not take a screenshot of a page and does not include surrounding captions or text layout.

Steps

  1. Start with a local DOCX. Replace the sample paths and identifiers with your own.
  2. Run the command below. Save to a new output path so the source remains available for comparison.
  3. Check the result as described below before using it in another job.
jetformat word extract-images report.docx -o report-images

Options for this task

Option Meaning
--output Output directory; defaults to <filename>-images

Check the result

Open the extracted files and confirm the required pictures are present; use PDF rendering for full-page previews.

Notes and limits

This is a free utility or read operation. It does not need a paid conversion to inspect the result.

The examples keep the original file. Add --force only when you intend to overwrite an existing output. Run jetformat word extract-images --help to compare options with your installed version.

See the word command reference for the surrounding workflow.
