[suggestion] Extract Images from PDF / Exclude images smaller than: (...) px
Currently, while limiting images extracted from documents, the size can only be specified in millimeters. This is sometimes inconvenient, because the images on the page can be displayed at different scales, and the print size does not reflect the size of the images in pixels, as an indirect indication of the quality of these images.

Hello, Jensen Head
This is based on the measurement unit type that you have specified in the Tolls preferences: Simply choose Points, instead of inches, and then you can configure it as needed without any display "assumptions" about the measurements.
Kind regards,

Excuse me, but how are Points related to the pixels of the original images?
Look, I created a document where I pasted the same image, but at a different scale:
_ _
The fact that the images are identical can be verified by exporting them using "Extract Images from PDF" / "Exclude images smaller than: No limit".
I set the "Exclude images smaller than" setting to "216 pt" - only one image is exported and the second one is considered "too small" even though the two images are exactly the same.
It is for such cases that I propose to supplement the list of items "point", "inch", "centimeter", "millimeter" and "pica" with the item "pixels".

Hello, Jensen Head
My apologies, your prior post was written such that I thought you were simply lamenting the fact that you could not use anything other than millimeters. I was offering a solution to that issue, sorry for misunderstanding.
You are correct that this feature does not currently account for the real size of images, but on the size on the page. I will forward this request to our Dev team and see what can be done, but at the moment I cannot make any promises.
Kind regards,
