Important
Check the result before relying on it
Keep an untouched copy of important source files. Browser processing depends on available device memory, and you should inspect every downloaded result before deleting the original.
Practical details
What this Lucaden tool does
Find files embedded in a PDF and package their original bytes and names into a downloadable ZIP archive.
Treat embedded files as untrusted downloads. Scan them before opening, and never execute an attachment solely because it came from a PDF.
This is an independent Lucaden workflow using permissive browser libraries. Stirling PDF is credited only as a product-feature reference; its application code is not copied or embedded.

Questions
About this tool
Does Lucaden upload my PDF?
No. PDF.js and pdf-lib process the document in temporary browser memory on this device.
What should I verify?
Treat embedded files as untrusted downloads. Scan them before opening, and never execute an attachment solely because it came from a PDF.
