PDF_extractImages

<p>The file name and location of a PDF file.  Prompts
for file name if none is explicitly called.</p>

file

<p>Tries to extract images within a PDF file.  Currently does not support 
decoding of images in CCITT compression formats. However, will still save 
these images to file; as a record of the number of images detected in the PDF.</p>

Functionalities for facilitating systematic reviews, data
extractions, and meta-analyses. It includes a GUI (graphical user interface)
to help screen the abstracts and titles of bibliographic data; tools to assign
screening effort across multiple collaborators/reviewers and to assess inter-
reviewer reliability; tools to help automate the download and retrieval of
journal PDF articles from online databases; figure and image extractions
from PDFs; web scraping of citations; automated and manual data extraction
from scatter-plot and bar-plot images; PRISMA (Preferred Reporting Items for
Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses) flow diagrams; simple imputation tools
to fill gaps in incomplete or missing study parameters; generation of random
effects sizes for Hedges' d, log response ratio, odds ratio, and correlation
coefficients for Monte Carlo experiments; covariance equations for modelling
dependencies among multiple effect sizes (e.g., effect sizes with a common
control); and finally summaries that replicate analyses and outputs from
widely used but no longer updated meta-analysis software (i.e., metawin).
