Catalog Image Extraction and Standardization

Job Title

Extract and Standardize Product Images from PDF Catalogs

Job Description

We need help extracting product profile images from several technical PDF catalogs.

Each catalog contains product tables with a profile drawing and a product code.

Your task is to:

Locate the product code

Crop the profile image

Save the image as PNG

Name the file exactly as the product code

Example:

Product code in catalog:

U20000

Output file:

U20000.png
Important requirement

All images must be consistent and standardized.

Requirements:

• Only the product profile visible
• No text, no table borders, no page numbers
• Profile centered in the image
• Same margins around the profile
• All images must have exactly the same format and proportions
• PNG format

Consistency is critical because the images will be used in an ERP system and B2B portal.

Project scope

Approximately:

• ~20 catalogs
• each catalog ~10 pages
• several hundred images total

Trial task

If the test is successful we will continue with the remaining catalogs.
