Page Images

The ID portion of a page image locator is formed by concatenating the ID for the text to which it is related with a two digit image series number (range 01-99) and a variable length image number. The image number is zero-padded so that it will always be the same length for a particular image series. The parts of the ID portion are separated by a forward slash character. The extension portion will vary with the image type (e.g., .jpg, .gif).

In a case where a new ID must be assigned after images have already been numbered sequentially, one or more letters may be appended to the image number (grammar: [a-z]+).

Examples: JPEG image 101 in image series 02 of text 049 will have locator 049/02/101.jpg; JPEG image 101a in image series 02 of text 049 will have locator 049/02/101a.jpg.
