# PDFtoIMG-JS

**PDFtoIMG-JS** is a powerful JavaScript library for converting **PDF file/files into images** (PNG or JPG).
It supports both **Node.js** and **browser environments**, making it ideal for a wide range of use cases — including integration with popular frameworks such as **React**, **Next.js**, **Vue**, and more.

## ✨ Features

- 📚 Supports **single** and **multiple** PDFs.
- 🎯 Choose specific **pages** (`all`, `firstPage`, `lastPage`, page numbers, or ranges like `1..3`).
- 🎨 Output images as **PNG** or **JPG** formats.
- 🔥 Compatible with **React**, **Next.js**, **Vue**, etc.
- 🛠 Fine control over **scale** and **output options**.
- 💻 Browser runtime automatically uses **HTML5 Canvas** rendering.
- 🧹 CLI ready for quick batch processing in **Node.js**.

## 📦 Installation

```bash
npm install pdftoimg-js
```

## 🛠 Basic Usage

#### 🚀 Example (Node.js Script)

```ts
import { pdfToImg } from "pdftoimg-js";

const images = await pdfToImg("example.pdf", {
  pages: "firstPage",
  imgType: "jpg",
  scale: 2,
  background: "white",
});

console.log(images); // => Base64 encoded JPG image
```

#### 📝 Example (Browser)

```ts
import { pdfToImg } from "pdftoimg-js/browser";

const fileInput = document.getElementById("pdfInput");

fileInput.addEventListener("change", async (e) => {
  const file = e.target.files[0];
  const images = await pdfToImg(URL.createObjectURL(file), {
    maxWidth: 1000,
    maxHeight: 1000,
    // Set scaleForBrowserSupport: true to automatically scale to 4096x4096
    // Setting maxWidth and maxHeight will override scaleForBrowserSupport
    // scaleForBrowserSupport: true,
  });

  images.forEach((imgSrc) => {
    const img = document.createElement("img");
    img.src = imgSrc;
    document.body.appendChild(img);
  });
});
```

## 📖 API Reference

### `pdfToImg(src, options?)`

Convert PDF(s) to images.

| Parameter | Type                                        | Description                     |
| :-------- | :------------------------------------------ | :------------------------------ |

| `options` | `Partial<Options>`                          | (Optional) Conversion settings. |

✅ **Returns**:

- If `pages` is a single page (`firstPage`, `lastPage`, or a number) ➔ Single image.
- Otherwise ➔ Array of images.

### Options (`Options` Interface)

```ts
interface Options {
  imgType?: "png" | "jpg"; // Default: "png"
  scale?: number; // Default: 1.5
  background?: string | CanvasGradient | CanvasPattern; // Default: "rgb(255,255,255)"
  intent?: "display" | "print" | "any"; // Default: "display"
  pages?: PagesType; // "all" | "firstPage" | "lastPage" | number | number[] | { startPage, endPage }
  documentOptions?: DocumentInitParameters; // (Optional) More PDF.js config.
  maxWidth?: number | null; // Default: null
  maxHeight?: number | null; // Default: null
  scaleForBrowserSupport?: boolean; // Default: false
}
```

### 🖽 Browser Support

- Auto-detects browser environment.
- Uses **Canvas API** for rendering pages.
- Sets **worker** dynamically from CDN:
  ```ts
  pdfjsLib.GlobalWorkerOptions.workerSrc =
    "//cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/pdf.js/4.8.69/pdf.worker.min.mjs";
  ```
- Returns **base64 DataURL** for each page.

## 👡 CLI Usage (Node.js Only)

Command-line support to batch convert PDFs easily!

```bash
pdftoimg -i <input> [-o <output>] [-t <imgType>] [-s <scale>] [-p <pages>] [-n <template>] [-ps <password>] [-b <background>] [-in <intent>] [-mw <maxWidth>] [-mh <maxHeight>] [-sb <scaleForBrowserSupport>]
