[PDF page labels](/core/get-started/samples.md#pagelabels) This example illustrates how to work with PDF page labels. PDF page labels can be used to describe a page.

[PDF logical structure reader](/core/get-started/samples.md#logicalstructure) This sample explores the structure and content of a tagged PDF document and dumps the structure information to the console window.

[PDF image extraction](/core/get-started/samples.md#imageextract) This sample illustrates couple of approaches to PDF image extraction.

[Read elements across all PDF pages](/core/get-started/samples.md#elementreader) Illustrates how to traverse page display list using ElementReader.

[PDF data extraction (images, text, paths)](/core/get-started/samples.md#elementreaderadv) The sample shows how to use some of more advanced PDFNet features. The sample code illustrates how to extract text, paths, and images.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.apryse.com/core/basic-operations/extraction/samples.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
