We used xpdf to generate jpgs / text of all our pdf files - that's
opensource.
Unfortunately this is command line too, so might not be any good to you,
but it might be easier to generate thumbs for your PDF "statically" if
you are re-using the same PDF's each time?

I need to pull in a PDF and be able to show thumbnails of the larger graphics
to the user.
They check off a couple and those are then saved as PNG or JPG files.
I am ok on saving graphics as PNG/JPG (given a bitmap) and doing the UI piece,
but can’t seem to find anything on how to manipulate the PDF to pull the
bitmaps.
Is there anything available short of Acrobat-SDK, and that is AS3-based?
There are a few utilities to do this*, but nothing code-based to glean from.
*Existing tools:
a-pdf.com
verypdf.com
sobolsoft.com
somepdf.com
dawningsoft.com
I have contacted them; but they only offer command-line, no-source,
alternatives.
Thanks
