    Description

      The ExtractImages tool (or the underlying PDFGraphicsStreamEngine) doesn't extract images from PDPattern objects, even if they are shown on the page. We've found that Win2PDF stores images in such patterns. I have attached a sample file that this tool has generated from the Angular website. The sample clearly shows many images, but ExtractImages finds none of these.
