NEWS Historic Map Works LLC Wed, 27 Jun 2008 12:00:33 -0700 http://www.historicmapworks.com/SiteNews.php When browsing a list of U.S. maps, you now have the ability to show or hide various types of map groups according to the attributes we have assigned them. For example, a common request was "how can I view a list of bird's eye views in my state?" Up until this update, when browsing the collection for a particular state, a visitor was presented with a list that included bound property atlases, bird's eye views, single state maps, railroad maps, and nautical charts all mixed together. Now however, visitors can choose which of the above categories to filter on and off by checking and unchecking the appropriate boxes. By default, all content will be shown. At the same time, we classified all of our U.S. map groups according to the quality of the images within. There are two classifications: High Quality and Informational Quality. The first denotes high quality scans of original documents that are perfect for fine-art quality reproduction prints, this is designated by the H icon next to the publisher. The second classification denotes scans which are suitable for research use and lend themselves nicely to being printed in our Research Print format, this is designated by the i icon next to the publisher. It is possible to order a full-size fine-art reproduction of an image from a map group designated as Informational Quality, however the final print quality and legibility will be much lower than from our High Quality images. NEWS Historic Map Works LLC Wed, 27 Jun 2008 12:00:33 -0700 http://www.historicmapworks.com/SiteNews.php In addition to the current pan and zoom feature on the map viewing page, the site now offers the ability to rotate images both clockwise and counter-clockwise allowing the reading of text that might otherwise be oriented in a direction other than left to right. To rotate the image, enable the Rotate function by selecting the "Rotate ON" button which is located at the top of the image. Doing so will display two new icons (represented by circular arrows) on the right of the Zoomify control panel. While the Rotate function is enabled, the "click to zoom" function is disabled, so please use the zoom slider bar or the plus and minus icons instead.
