Saving high resolution records on Antenati?

[anthonyd3ca]

Does anyone know how to save the high resolution files in the new Antenati website? I can't seem to find a download button or a proper way to save the documents.

On the left side menu (the "hamburger"), click the information tab ("i" in a circle), then scroll down to the IIIF manifest link. Open that link (it helps to have a JSON formatting extension in Chrome or use the one built into Firefox), then search for "pag. #" (the page number of the image you want). The "pag. #" tag marks the end of the data entry for that image:

Code: Select all

{
	"@id": "https://dam-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/antenati/containers/LDAyeqE/manifest/canvas/0M42e8l",
	"@type": "sc:Canvas",
	"width": 1000,
	"height": 1000,
	"images": [
		{
			"@id": "https://dam-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/antenati/containers/LDAyeqE/manifest/annotation/0M42e8l",
			"@type": "oa:Annotation",
			"motivation": "sc:painting",
			"on": "https://dam-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/antenati/containers/LDAyeqE/manifest/canvas/0M42e8l",
			"resource": {
				"@id": "https://iiif-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/iiif/2/0M42e8l/full/full/0/default.jpg",
				"@type": "dctypes:Image",
				"format": "image/jpeg",
				"width": 1000,
				"height": 1000,
				"service": {
					"@context": "http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json",
					"@id": "https://iiif-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/iiif/2/0M42e8l",
					"profile": "http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json"
				}
			}
		}
	],
	"thumbnail": {
		"@id": "https://dam-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/static/thumbnails/IMAGE.png"
	},
	"label": "pag. 141"
}

look above it for the tag "resource" and you will find a link something like

Code: Select all

https://iiif-antenati.san.beniculturali.it/iiif/2/0M42e8l/full/full/0/default.jpg

That is the link to the full-size image.

Thanks for the help guys! Looks like this will slow down my research process quite a bit

Holy farfagnuggen ?! While I liked learning this process about JSON, none of that is necessary.

I just used that method guided out and thank you to the tech savvy person for that (using Opera with JSON extension enabled) and yes, it works... Though, myself, I'm far from tech challenged always good to know as I never had that file type to deal with before.

But, the same exact quality of image can be had by pulling the record page into view, right clicking and save as .png format. The file I saved using the hamburger to iiif process was 402 kb in 3136x1972 res , and looked IDENTICAL in quality to that of the one saved with simple right click, 1.74 mb 1646x1150 which is hi enough - and I'm on 2, 4k monitors. The .png can easily be converted to jpg or other format or just change the png to jpg by renaming the file image.

Why make it make it more complicated - for those that want, keep it simple. After all, some sites will have limitations to the file size you can upload and applications (say for printing perspective) the 1600x1100 is fine enough.

Still, I did enjoy the lesson~!

Your .png image save is easy and gives a good image if you enlarge the page to the part you want to copy. Saving the entire page however gives you a blurred image that an enlargement does not permit you to read.
The JSON method is the only way I have found that gives a full page that can be enlarged just like the image on the antenati page.

Partially correct, yes - it would be dependant on the size of your monitor screen as well. I capture the whole page with no issue of image quality, when using full screen and maximizing the image to the larger of my monitors. Alternately, if one is using 2 monitors like I do, another options is to have one on the vertical mount. I work that way at work. In a large monitor on the vertical, you could maximize the page side you want to fill the screen and capture an equally good image. Smaller laptops and other such screens on the horizontal plain don't give you that latitude of options. I'd probably still use the slightly longer approach, now that I have been schooled in it, if I had to capture facing pages and it was the best option to do so with.

Happy hunting... and snipping images !

Perhaps, the easiest solution is when you find and can view the actual page that you are looking for in Antenati is to do a screen print (Shift-Print Screen). Next, click the appropriate symbol to open the screen print clipboard and click on Paste. Next click on "File", then "Save As", then "JPEG picture", then select where you want to file it. If appropriate, also crop it once done and save it.

excellent link: here english

One method is to use an Example IIIF poster viewer , to capture page no. 3 of the register of marriages in Caltabellotta of 1821 ( State Archives of Agrigento> Civil status of the restoration> Caltabellotta> 1821) . Go to the register in question



https: //www.antenati.san.beniculturali. ... d = 15346402
To the left of the image is an "Object Information" column.

Scroll down; the last entry is "Link IIIF manifest".

Move the cursor over the link (https: //dam-antenati.san.beniculturali. ... b / manifest)

Right click. In the context menu , click on "Copy link".

Go tohttps://universalviewer.io/#view

In the "" Paste the URL of a IIIF manifest here to see the UV in action! "Field, paste the link to the manifest file.

Click on" View ", you will see the image of the first page of the log and, on the left, a column with the thumbnails of the other pages.

Scroll and view the page you are interested in, for example No. 3.

In the viewer , at the bottom left of the image of a page, under the column with the thumbnails, you see that there is an icon with the download symbol If you [ ] click on it, a small window opens in which there is a list of options with different formats of the photo to download and the word "download" on a green background.

Choose "Whole image 3748 x 3220px (jpg)" and then click on the "download" button.

The complete image is loaded in a new browser tab, in jpg format
(https://iiif-antenati.san.beniculturali ... efault.jpg).

This image can be saved with the usual procedure (right mouse button, etc.).

As of May 13, 2022, this solution is no longer working for me. I get a message saying that I do not have appropriate permissions to access the IIIF manifests.

I just tried it now and I have the same problem. To get around it, I did a screen print of the page and pasted it to Paint. From there, I clicked on File and saved it as a JPEG picture plus re-titled it (can also crop it in Paint before saving it).

I have gotten the same message.

I am taking low res screen caps where needed for now.
