About This PDF Attachment Extractor
Our PDF Attachment Extractor uses CoherentPDF, a professional PDF library compiled to WebAssembly, to extract embedded file attachments from PDF documents entirely in your browser. Any file type attached to a PDF — documents, images, spreadsheets, presentations, archives, and more — can be recovered in its original format. Upload multiple PDFs at once and attachments are extracted automatically. Each extracted file keeps its original filename, prefixed with the source PDF name and page number when the attachment was page-specific. Duplicate filenames are automatically renamed to avoid conflicts. All processing stays local in your browser — no data is ever uploaded. Use Download All to package all extracted attachments into a single ZIP archive.

Important Notes
This tool extracts embedded file attachments from PDF documents. If a PDF has no attachments, it is skipped and an error is shown. Attachments are extracted in their original format — no conversion is applied. Filenames are prefixed with the source PDF name, and duplicate names are automatically de-duplicated. The Clear button clears only the results list.
