Links 4 and 5 on http://www.sanskrit-lexicon.uni-koeln.de/scans/PWGScan/2013/web/webtc/download.html do not work, please fix. pwgweball.zip (1500MB!) Materials to construct an offline version of the web displays of the dictionary, including scanned images directory web/pdfpages pwgweb.zip Materials to construct an offline version of the web displays of the dictionary. Note: Due to size constraints, the directory 'web/pdfpages' is not included. So, this offline version does not include access to the scanned images.

pwgweb.zip now available, and also pwgweball.zip. I downloaded pwgweb and tried briefly with server2go, and all displays seem to work.

gasyoun commented 10 years ago

Thanks, everything works fine now. More than 1000 megabytes do look strange. 1) pwgweball.zip (1500MB!) -> pwgweball.zip (1.5 Gb!) And I would add the size to every file indeed: 2) pwgweb.zip -> pwgweb.zip (45 Mb) 3) Is there enough server place to add 1 button to download all files? 4) File names in .pdf books are numerals. In my version of pdfs (based on Thomas' ttf files from a DVD sent to me in 2002): -- files are named after the first word on the page, so I can browse quickly -- files have prefaces and lists of abbreviations (OCRing them to make the text available as .txt or .pdf one day)

@funderburkjim Time to respond to small suggestions from @gasyoun

gasyoun commented 9 years ago

One year anniversary.

funderburkjim commented 9 years ago

Both links now work . Happy Anniversary ! :sunglasses:

Regarding #4 (file names in PDFS): If you open up the bookmarks in each pdf, you should see first word on page. That's why the files are named pwg1_bookmark.pdf ,etc.

Regarding 3) - Not enough server space for a zip of everything.

@gasyoun Close the issue?

gasyoun commented 9 years ago

Not enough server space for a zip of everything. - how much is needed? We could host it as a .torrent somewhere else, the question would be how to update the files without hassle.

gasyoun commented 8 years ago

@funderburkjim torrent seems the way to give it a 2nd life, if the server will go down. Or if you will convert to Hindi. Everything will be lost.
