System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Automates extraction of figures from research papers, prioritizing arXiv source packages to obtain original, high-quality images instead of relying on embedded PDF figures.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Priority-based extraction: arXiv source package, then PDF figures, then embedded images
  • Flexible figure discovery across common directories (pics, figures, fig, images, img) with automatic copying to an output directory
  • Generates an index file detailing sources (arxiv-source, pdf-figure, pdf-extraction) for easy reuse in presentations or manuscripts

Quick Start

Run the tool on a paper's arXiv ID to collect all figures and generate an index in the output directory.
