RE: VMs: Beinecke & MrSID...

["Don Latham" <djl@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

For the group's info: I looked into Mr Sid a couple of years ago for for
another possible use. It is a Wavelet compression scheme that "matches" the
pixels to the size of the "zoom" ie the farther in you zoom, the higher the
pixel density. It's a very effective way to store a document. But if you
want the most detail for say a whole page locally, the file will still be
large.

Hi everyone,

FYI, the back-cover (I think) MrSID (.sid) scan is a 3279 x 4566 RGB image
- looking good! :-)
