Over 90 percent of the information in the world is still on paper. Many
|
|
of those paper documents include color graphics and/or photographs that
|
|
represent significant invested value. And almost none of that rich
|
|
content is on the Internet.
|
|
|
|
That's because scanning such documents and getting them onto a Web site
|
|
has been problematic at best. At the high resolution necessary to
|
|
preserve the quality of images and to keep type readable, file sizes
|
|
become far too bulky for acceptable download speed. Reducing resolution
|
|
to achieve satisfactory download speed means forfeiting quality and
|
|
legibility. Conventional JPEG and GIF compression techniques only begin
|
|
to solve the problem. As a result, Web site content developers have been
|
|
unable to leverage existing printed materials.
|
|
|
|
Until now...
