Instructions for cutting out images

  1. The figures should be cut out of the TIFF-images, rather than the compressed JPG-images in online_permanent/library on foxridge. The Digigroup should know where the relevant images are.
  2. Do not cut out drop caps or embellishments, e. g. decorative images on the title page
  3. If there is already an xml-version of the text, it is handy to extract a list of all figures that are to be cut out. You can do this for example by using XQuery in the display system:
    //echo:figure
    
    Furthermore, you can check (1) if all pages not on that list do not contain images and (2) which pages contain only decorative images.
  4. Be careful not to cut out surrounding text, including the catchword at the bottom of the page. However, captions are to be cut out, as well.
  5. Save the cropped images again as TIFF in the format page-imagenumber, e. g., if pageimage 0056.tif has three figures, these figures will be saved as 0056-01.tif, 0056-02.tif and 0056-03.tif, respectively.
  6. Put the figures into a folder named figures and upload it to the foxridge server alongside the pageimg-folder of the respective book: folder online_permanent/library/XXXXXXXX will then contain both a pageimg and a figures folder.
