But the issue with tiling is that the nav process is miserable for all but the shortest books. Most of the people who want to download want are looking for jpegs rather than source tiffs and one pdf instead of a bunch of tiffs (which is good since each one is typically over 100MB). Of course there are people who want the real deal, but that's actually a much less common use case. As Karen observes, downloading and viewing serve different use cases so of course we will provide both. IIP Image Server looks intriguing. But most of our users who want the full res stuff really just want to download the source tiffs which will be made available. kyle
