PDF files that contain a single image are often a pain to work with, but it is simple to extract that image using pdfimages
.
First, run pdfimages with the list command to check the document is composed of a single image:
$ pdfimages -list file.pdf
page num type width height color comp bpc enc interp object ID x-ppi y-ppi size ratio
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 0 image 3508 2480 rgb 3 8 jpeg no 8 0 300 300 409K 1.6%
If the output gives one image per page, then it should be possible to extract the image to the raw image file. The following command will extract the file to its native format (if tiff or jpeg), or fallback to png otherwise. You should confirm that the two resulting files are visually identical before discarding the original.
pdfimages -png -tiff -j file.pdf file
