[Feature Request] Include pictures from the PDF

[dummifiedme]

Its a kind request for this plugin to have a way to extract images as well. It could be made optional for a user, but a quick extraction with images and graphs would really help :)

Yeah I would appreciate this as well. I think as part of this, since images are what make PDFs so large in size, it might also be helpful to log the image names and their associated file size -- I imagine that without that, crashes might seem like a plugin issue.

Note: this seems like a feature request in the dependency for this project, I believe to be the following project: https://github.com/opendocsg/pdf2md-web (node)

(that npm project was derived from https://github.com/jzillmann/pdf-to-markdown)

Even without extracting images per say, we can just allow kind of an screenshot of the desired area. Image or not. Eg drawing a rectangle over an area could mark it for extraction.

I discussed it here as well.
