Re: LOC releases online historic newspapers

A FREE viewer that works with JP2 images is IrfanView. Use Google to
search for it, download it and download all of the available plug-ins.
No fee for any of this and it is great with these images, and for
other images, putting together slide shows, and lots of other choices.
I've used it for years...

FWIW

Everyone,

Thanks to the director of our Innovation Center on campus (a high-tech
center for faculty), here's a solution to Ed's JP2 question. These
are Rich Fox's instructions:

A good program to use is the AyeView image browser, viewer, converter,
which has reader/writer capability. The URL is <http://
www.ayeview.com>. You may wish to use the "Download AyeView and try
freely" option. Purchase later if you like it.

Use the try option/button when the registration screen opens. You
will have 30 days.

Steps to use are as follows:

1. Download your file to your PC (You'll see a list of acceptable
file formats on the website, including JP2. <http://www.ayeview.com/
formats.htm>)

2. In AyeView, use File Open from the Tools bar, and browse for your
saved file. The short cut key strokes are Ctrl+O.

3. Once you select the file name and press the OPEN button, it should
appear on your screen.

Note: The SAVE AS option does not work with the trial package. [When
I talked to Rich, he said that the purchased program will allow you to
save as a different file type.]

As you'll see, the program cost is $19.95.

Rich is a friendly, helpful guy, who would try to answer questions.
If you need to contact him, add his user name (first initial + last
name above) to tulsacc.edu.
