Thanks, Al, that's very helpful! Now there's just one little detail missing that I can think of off-hand: How do I access PG's /incoming folder? What's the URL or IP for the FTP server? Does anonymous access work? Thanks for bearing with all my questions! Jana On Feb 13, 2012, at 20:04, Al Haines wrote:
My suggestions, Greg to clarify as needed:
For new submissions:
Name the folder "page-images", and include it in the new project's zip file. The WWers can prefix the name with the assigned etext number. The folder should not be inside the normal /images folder.
The usual procedure for past large submissions is that the entire submission be FTPed to PG's /incoming folder, then a small placeholder file be uploaded the normal way, which will notify the WWers. (FTPing a file doesn't notify the WWers.) Mention in the Note to Whitewashers field the name of the uploaded file.
Do *NOT* create a folder for your FTPed file. There's no need if you're uploading a zip file with a unique name, and the WWers can't delete the folder anyway (the files in the folder, yes; the folder itself, no).
For an existing etext:
Name the zip file "nnnnn-page-images.zip", where nnnnn is the etext number, then upload via FTP, as above. The zip file should contain a folder, also named "nnnnn-page-images", not just the page scans themselves. Notify the WWers by emailing "pgww@...", mentioning the name of the zip file and that it's for an existing etext.
