HI Ethan, By clicking onto the demo link the page with all the different pictures of the illuminated book came up - but clicking onto an individual image brings up nothing. Is there a viewer that you have to download first even for the demo?

In the last year or so, some developers at the Los Alamos National Laboratory have done some great work to develop an apache tomcat JPEG-2000 module. It's free and open source, and a number of institutions have begun using in a production environment. I'm integrating it into a digital coins project. http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/djatoka/index.php?title=Main_Page Here's a demo: http://african.lanl.gov/adore-djatoka/ Ethan Gruber University of Virginia Library On Fri, Jul 31, 2009 at 2:26 PM, Cindy Mackey <cmackey at currier.org> wrote: > We are thinking about putting digital images of architectural drawings > that we have in our collection, online and I was wondering what would be > the best program to use.
