Export PDF to Image with Command Line
Hi,
i use PDF XChange Viewer to Export all Sites of PDF Files to Images. How can i do this using the Command Line with PDF XChange Viewer? Is there a CL-Option or a other Tracker Tool that can do this?

Re: Export PDF to Image with Command Line
Hi Mainert,
Thanks for the post - I'm afraid that this cannot be done with th command line with the Viewer, but can with the latest release of PDF-Tools. I'd recommend that you take a look at PDF-Tools:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/pdf-tools
https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt6 ... ns_ed.html
Also, please be aware that the Viewer was discontinued and replaced by the Editor quite some time ago, so no further changes will be made to the Viewer moving forward.

Re: Export PDF to Image with Command Line
Mmmmh, the PDF XChange Editor can't export the Sites of a PDF File to TIFF-Images? I couldn't find anything to do this? This is why i still use PDF XChange Viewer even it isn't supported anymore.
I also installed the XChange Editor free again but i can't find tzhe PDF Tools. Is this only included in the Pro-Version?

Hello Mainert,
Thank you for the post.
You can download the Tools installer here: https://www.pdf-xchange.com/PDFTools6.zip
I hope this helps!
Thank you for the post.
In the Editor, you can export to TIFF and other image formats via File> Export> To images:Mmmmh, the PDF XChange Editor can't export the Sites of a PDF File to TIFF-Images?
PDF-Tools is not included with the Editor. Tools can be purchased by itself (the PDF-Tools license will also license the Editor) and is included with PDF-XChange PRO as well.I also installed the XChange Editor free again but i can't find tzhe PDF Tools. Is this only included in the Pro-Version?

Re: Export PDF to Image with Command Line
You say PDFTools is included in PDF XChange Editor Pro, but you posted a Link to Download PDFTools. Is this a Trial-Version of PDF Tools? Is there a HowTo how i can use PDFTools with the command line?

Hi Mainert,
Thanks for the post - That's correct, the link that Patrick posted is a trial download for PDF-Tools. Please note that Patrick was not referring to "PDF Editor Pro", but PDF-XChange Pro which is a bundle containing the Editor Plus, PDF-Tools and PDF-XChange Standard.
Regarding using Tools from the Command Line please see the second link in my previous post.

Re: Export PDF to Image with Command Line
It seems like the link to the command line options was for the Editor.
For PDF-Tools V6 they are here:

Re: Export PDF to Image with Command Line
Just to make clear what i'm searching for. I'm searching for a Comand Line Tool that can convert PDf into Images via Command Line. Something like this.
What I've seen here https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt6 ... ons_t.html, this doesn't look like i can do this with PDFTools.
Code: Select all

Hello,
Actually, this can be done using the /RunTool command. I have tested converting PDF to images using this command string:
Get the tool ID of even your custom tools using the following commands:
