The single-page .gif files load quickly.  The whole-issue .pdf file takes about a minute to load with my slow dsl service.  The resolution is about equally useable in either format, but it's much easier to scan through the .pdf file than to look at each page individually in the .gif format.
 
I prefer the .pdf file, in spite of the download time.
 
Many thanks, Phil, for your work to make the archive available online!

Subject: catalina27-talk: Technote Feedback. PDf or Pages

I’ve posted a PDF for the Mainsheet ’83 Summer issue.

 

The PDF format is faster for me as it allows a single file to be uploaded and linked. It took an hour to prep and link the first issue as pages. I can also use a drag and drop to reorder pages if they come out mixed up. It also makes the pages easier to printout for use at the boat on your end.

 

The downside is your download time.

 

I tried and failed to bump the resolution up a bit hitting a file size cap, so the PDF is big.

 

Please let me know if you think the PDF is too unwieldy. 90 issues to go.

After talking with Tech Support about on-line storage they suggested we try a lower resolution image. I’ve created a single issue and placed it on-line.

 

Please take a look at the images and see it they are legible at the resolution you normally view at.

 

Thanks,

I get a Memberclicks error page both ways.
