Bug ID: 44531
Summary: Download a single page from a PDF at the original (or
high) resolution as JPEG
Product: MediaWiki
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: General/Unknown
Assignee: [email protected]

Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Currently, you can download a PDF page only on lower resolutions and on some
pages (especially in newspapers), it's not enough to be able to read the text.
The only alternative for reading it is to download the whole PDF, but that
makes it more complicated: some PDFs are very large (up to 100MB) or have
hundreds of pages and it's harder to do this, especially on mobile devices with
limited bandwidth or memory.
Sample page:
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:România_Liberă_1885-01-25_nr._2259.pdf
The solution would be to allow to download the page as JPG in the full
resolution that is available in the PDF, in the case in which it's stored as a
bitmap, or at least to add a larger resolution in the list of available
resolutions.
