Word Image Extractor

List the pictures and embedded files in a Word (.docx) file, then save them one by one or together as a ZIP. Each picture is shown with where it is used (body, header or footer), and pictures that nothing uses are marked. Your file is processed only in your browser.

How to use

  1. report.docx5 images

    Add a .docx file

  2. report.docxBody, header

    See where and what each image is

  3. Body_image1.pngPacked as ZIP
    Header and footer_image1.png

    Save the chosen images by place

See the pictures in a .docx, then save the chosen ones with names that show where they were
  1. Choose a .docx file or drop it here. “Try a sample” builds a sample Word file with pictures and an embedded workbook on your device.

  2. In the list, check each picture’s look, size and file size, and where it is used: body, header or footer.

  3. Pictures that nothing uses are marked “Unused”.

  4. Tick what you want and press “Save selected”. One item is saved in its own format; several are packed into one ZIP. To save a single item, press “Save” on its row.

  5. File names show the place, such as Body_image1.png or Header and footer_image1.png, and a number is added when names repeat.

What it does

Shows where each picture is used

Follows the relationships (rels) that point at each picture and shows whether it is used in the body, a header, a footer or a footnote. Page numbers are decided by Word’s layout and are not stored in the file, so they are not shown.

Reads the format from the content

Identifies PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, WebP, TIFF, EMF, WMF and SVG from the first bytes, not the extension. Browsers cannot draw EMF, WMF or TIFF, so those get no thumbnail; they show the format and size and can still be saved.

Also takes embedded files

Lists the Excel, PowerPoint, Word and PDF files kept in word/embeddings and saves them as they are. Their contents cannot be edited here.

Leaves the document as it is

Only reads the file; the Word document is never rewritten. Each ZIP is built fresh when you save. Against ZIP bombs, every part is checked for its unpacked size and its expansion ratio before it is taken out.

Use cases

  • Pull every photo from a report at its original resolution in one go
  • Save one diagram from a Word file to reuse in another document
  • Check that no unused picture is left in a file before you share it outside
  • Open an Excel workbook or PDF that is embedded in a Word file

Supported formats

Files it reads

.docx (Word 2007 and later).docm (macro-enabled; only read, macros never run)

What it takes out

Pictures: PNG, JPEG, GIF, BMP, WebP (with preview); EMF, WMF, TIFF, SVG (save only)Embedded files: Excel, PowerPoint, Word, PDF and others

Limits & notes

  • Files up to 1 GB, up to 20,000 parts in a ZIP. A part is taken out only if it is up to 512 MB unpacked.
  • A part that expands more than 1,000 times its compressed size is not taken out, because it may be a ZIP bomb (only parts over 1 MB are checked for this).
  • The selected items together may be up to 1 GB. Previews are made for pictures up to 64 MB and 64 megapixels.
  • It also works on phones, but for Word files of several hundred MB a computer is recommended.
  • Pictures are taken out at their stored pixels. Page numbers in Word are not known; locations are body, and header and footer together (not told apart).

Privacy & safety

Reading, listing, previews and building the ZIP all happen in your browser. Neither the file’s contents nor its name is ever sent to or stored on a server.

FAQ

How do I save all the pictures from a Word file at once?
Open the .docx, tick the pictures you want and press “Save selected”. With more than one, they are packed into a ZIP with names that show their place.
Where are the pictures stored inside a Word file?
A .docx is a ZIP archive. Pictures are in its word/media folder, and this tool lists that folder and takes out the picture data.
Can I get the page number of each picture?
No. Page breaks are decided by Word’s layout and are not stored in the file. The tool tells you body, or header and footer together (not told apart).
Why does an EMF or WMF picture show no thumbnail?
Browsers cannot draw EMF or WMF, so no thumbnail is made. The format and size are shown, and the picture can still be saved. Open it in a drawing program or Office afterwards.
Can it open .doc files or password-protected Word files?
No. Old .doc files cannot be read, and the contents of a password-protected file cannot be read either. Remove the password and save as .docx first.
Are my files uploaded?
No. Everything is processed in your browser and nothing is sent to a server.

Office Size Inspector

Find out what makes a Word, Excel or PowerPoint file heavy: a breakdown by images, video, fonts, embedded objects, XML and more, with every picture’s resolution compared with how large it is shown and where it is used. Then make a lighter copy while the original stays unchanged. Files are never uploaded.
