Simple installer with context menu integration

The setup procedure is fast and requires minimal user assistance, thanks to the fact that the wizard shows familiar steps.From this point on, you can open the right-click menu of any PDF document in your file explorer to take advantage of this application. However, you should keep in mind that this is not actually a PDF viewer. Instead, it creates a temporary edition of the PDF documents with stripped off images, which can be opened in your default PDF viewer. In other words, it cannot work independently.

Set the action and replacement object

The configuration panel of Pdf-No-Img has a standard look and two drop-down menus for selecting the preferred action and replacement object. Therefore, you can choose between opening a no-images or the original version of the specified PDF document, creating a file version without graphical contents, as well as between replacing the photos with a transparent gray box, a simple gray box, or nothing at all.

Evaluation and conclusion

Worth noting is that the tool isn't capable of hiding vector graphics and inline images, nor of handling encrypted PDF docs. Help documentation is available for beginners.Thanks to its intuitive options, Pdf-No-Img can be handled with ease by anyone looking for a straightforward method to temporarily disable graphical contents when opening PDF docs.
