actually... I really jumped the gun when I thought I had it working... turns out that the images that did finally come through in the viewer were simply cached images...
I had been playing with direct links to see what the problem was so I was in fact just looking at cached images from page 1 and 2... so, I'm right back where I started... I can view the PDF in a full size viewer... I can also look at individual images that make up the viewer pages... BUT... when in the iFrame on the item page it just won't work... :-( Fred Edwards Systems Technician Patrick Power Library Saint Mary's University Halifax, Nova Scotia B3H 3C3 Phone: (902) 420-5096 Fax: (902) 420-5561 E-mail: [email protected] Website: http://www.smu.ca/library/ -- On Thu, May 13, 2010 at 2:11 PM, Peter Dietz <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm glad you worked that out.
