Many tools are available on the internet for converting a PDF to an image. In this article, we are going to write code for converting pdf to image and make a handy application in python. Before writing the code we need to install the required module pdf2image and poppler.

Modules Needed

  • pdf2image 1.14.0: This module converts a PDF to a PIL object. To install this module type the below command in the terminal.
pip install pdf2image
  • poppler: This module allows to read, render, or modify PDF documents, use the below instruction to insatll it.
  • For Windows : click here to download.
    •  You will then have to add the bin/ folder to PATH or use
    •  poppler_path = r”C:\path\to\poppler-xx\bin” as an argument in convert_from_path.
    • For Linux: use the below command.
    • sudo apt-get install poppler-utils
    • After that run the code.

    Approach:

    • Import the pdf2image module
    • Store a PDF with convert_from_path()
    • Save image with save()

    Below is the Implementation.

    PDF File used:

    Python 
    # import module from pdf2image import convert_from_path   # Store Pdf with convert_from_path function images = convert_from_path('example.pdf')  for i in range(len(images)):          # Save pages as images in the pdf     images[i].save('page'+ str(i) +'.jpg', 'JPEG')

    Output:

    Let’s write code for Application Using Tkinter: This Script implements the above Implementation into a GUI.

    Below is the Implementation.

    Python 
    from pdf2image import convert_from_path from tkinter import * from tkinter import messagebox   def pdf2img():     try:         images = convert_from_path(str(e1.get()))         for img in images:             img.save('new_folder\output.jpg', 'JPEG')      except  :         Result = "NO pdf found"         messagebox.showinfo("Result", Result)      else:         Result = "success"         messagebox.showinfo("Result", Result)    master = Tk() Label(master, text="File Location").grid(row=0, sticky=W)   e1 = Entry(master) e1.grid(row=0, column=1)  b = Button(master, text="Convert", command=pdf2img) b.grid(row=0, column=2,columnspan=2, rowspan=2,padx=5, pady=5)   mainloop()

    Output:

    If there is no PDF file at your given location.
