It is sad to me that converting to PDF for viewing off the Web seems like the

Ed,
I added support for IIIF syntax to OpenSeadragon:
https://github.com/openseadragon/openseadragon/blob/master/src/iiif1_1tilesource.js
so it just works. Not sure if Ian has cut a release recently, but it's
on the master branch anyway.
