Is there a way to extract images from pdf using R and save them into a folder?
there are a lot of similar questions regarding other programming languages and there is apparently a way to do this in python, was wondering if the same work can be replicated in r https://www.thepythoncode.com/article/extract-pdf-images-in-python
there is pdftools package in r but does not sound like it can help much with images, only reads text and there is an option for ocr, I just want to extract the images and store them into a folder.
I can try to use reticulate package to use this python method in r but I won't be able to loop / map it as I would like. That's why I was asking if anyone knows a way in R.
thank you.
