OK - I got those from Joshua and they formed the requirements for Version 1 of Twister. Here's an extensive forum thread on DP <http://www.pgdp.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=32038>where we hashed this all out. On Fri, Mar 19, 2010 at 5:46 PM, Al Haines (shaw) <ajhaines@shaw.ca> wrote:
No. It was developed and used by Joshua Hutchinson, when he used to post DP scansets to PG. I got the material from his emails to the WWers a few months ago.
So far as I know, only Joshua has done this with scans. Some submitters (usually from DP) incorporate scansets into their HTML files, with the file's page numbers linked to the scans. Offhand, I don't have any examples of this.

So far this "spec" seems to be primarily a legend.
Is it documented anywhere?

Jim, the material below describes the scanset naming standard used by PG. For an example, go to http://www.gutenberg.org/etext/25896, click on the Base Directory link at the bottom of the book's catalog info, above the actual files. You should see a 25896-page-images folder. Click on it to see the actual files.

Basic format:
The prefix for the cover pages is: "c". The prefix for the roman pages is: "f". The prefix for the arabic pages is: "p".
***
For blank pages there should be no file and the page number should be skipped. Optionally an image saying: "This page is blank in the original." may be inserted.

Example of file naming:
front cover c0001.png back cover c0002.png spine c0003.png
i title page f0001.png ii title verso f0002.png iii dedication f0003.png iv is blank v contents f0005.png
page 1 p0001.png page 2 p0002.png image on page 2 p0002-image1.png image on page 2 p0002-image2.png page 3 p0003.png page 4 is blank page 5 p0005.png ... ... page 9999 p9999.png
