The heritage of the PDF has something to do with it also. A lot of PDFs are 
basically themselves a single image per page, in which case you open it in 
the GIMP and crop it down to the image, which you save by whatever name 
and in whatever format you want, all the while weeping over the poor 
quality of the thing, unless it's a very high resolution PDF. No?
