Er, before you guys get all insane about it (yeah, too late, I know), allow me
to clarify that I was speaking only of Charles "OLS" and not of loading page
image scans to PG.
All DP content providers should be aware that as long as their page images are
in the "archive" then DP can coordinate a mass push of ALL eligible page
image content to PG. This is contingent on getting the archived DP files in
order, a task which I have yet to ascertain the size of.
Right. I figured this was more or less a test run. For one thing, the DP pages # rarely correspond to the physical page #s, and each book will require manual intervention to determine page numbers, short of some kind of re-ocr and automatic page # extraction from the headers. Personally, I'm betting on manual intervention. :)
