How can I easily upload Zoomify Image folders to my Web server?
Zoomify Image folders can contain numerous JPEG ’tile’ files. As a result, it is often helpful to first ‘zip’ or ‘stuff’ one or more folders prior to uploading. The uploaded file can then be unzipped or unstuffed on the server. This approach results in the transfer of a comparable amount of data but only a single file transfer. The savings in client and server communication can reduce the copy time dramatically. This approach is also recommended due to the reduced risk of any individual JPEG file being corrupted or lost during the transfer process whether due to operating system or human error. Utilities for compressing and uncompressing files as described above can be downloaded from numerous sites including WinZip.com and Stuffit.com.
