Frequently Asked Questions

1What types of attachments can be extracted?

Any file embedded in the PDF — images, spreadsheets, other PDFs, and more.

2Are embedded images the same as attachments?

No. Embedded images are part of page content. Attachments are separate files bundled inside the PDF. Use 'Extract Images' for page images.

3How do I know if my PDF has attachments?

Upload your PDF and the tool will detect and list all attachments. Most PDF viewers also show an attachment icon or paperclip symbol.

4What if my PDF has no attachments?

The tool will report that no attachments were found. Not all PDFs contain embedded file attachments.

Why Use ZiaSign's Extract Attachments Tool?

ZiaSign's attachment extractor finds and downloads all embedded file attachments from your PDF. Images, spreadsheets, other PDFs, and any other embedded files are extracted and packaged into a ZIP for download.
