The output of pdfimages would be a whole page image if the input is a non-searchable, image-based pdf files. Take for example:

https://www.nysedregents.org/ushistorygov/Archive/20000126exam.pdf

which utility would detect the cartoons on page 6 and 7?

Albretch,

This will likely be a two-step process:

1. Extract page images from pdf using a tool such at the one you indicate. 2. Extract subpage components from separate image files, using a tool such as: https://opensource.com/article/18/5/getting-started-luminoth

Linux terminals makes such processing rather easy.

NOTE that I have not personally used a tool like luminoth so I cannot comment on its accuracy, but its website pages suggest it may have the capability to do what you want (well, using the example document you provided and the examples shown on its website).

Good luck!

(preferably Linux-based, OS) utility to extract images from image-based pdf files ...

I have a few questions for those who know Linux commands. Questions, starting with the first one, how to switch processes in Linux? And the second question is how to check exactly how many processes are running in linux including hidden processes.

The answer to the second question is simple. Use the command ps aux, and this command will show you all the running Linux processes. The answer to the first question is a bit more complicated. First, you print out all the processes, and then you will have to use the command top or htop to move the running around. Here is a detailed article on how to check running processes in Linux https://www.hostforweb.com/article/how-check-running-processes-linux/ It is a step-by-step guide on how to test running processes in Linux. You should be able to figure it all out.
