17:44 🔗 chronomex foad diaf spammer
17:45 🔗 chronomex *foadiaf
17:48 🔗 chronomex I am speaking on behalf of ARCHIVE TEAM at SOUTH BY SOUTHWEST in four hours
17:49 🔗 Schbirid chronomex: is it being archived!?
17:50 🔗 chronomex is there anything anyone wants me to say?
17:51 🔗 chronomex I don't know. I will record it, though I don't know how good audio I can get with my telephone.
18:08 🔗 shaqfu It's always darkly funny when preservation panels aren't preserved
18:36 🔗 shaqfu And for anyone listening: are there estimates on how well you can losslessly compress non-8-bit TIFF files?
18:39 🔗 chronomex how many bits?
18:40 🔗 shaqfu chronomex: Dunno; 16 or 24, I'd guess
18:40 🔗 shaqfu Someone's asking about digitizing hundreds of ln ft of manuscripts, and my envelope math says it'll turn out to be 50TB
18:41 🔗 shaqfu So before I tell them to make sure they have 50TB handy, I'm looking up compression
18:42 🔗 Nemo_bis how many dpi?
18:42 🔗 shaqfu Nemo_bis: 300, I'd estimate
18:42 🔗 shaqfu That's what I'm using, and it's coing out to be 40-50MB per page
18:42 🔗 Nemo_bis ah, that's even quite low
18:42 🔗 shaqfu It's just text
18:42 🔗 shaqfu I'd imagine they want more for images
18:42 🔗 Nemo_bis how old?
18:42 🔗 shaqfu Nemo_bis: 40s-today
18:44 🔗 shaqfu I see that LZW works awesomely on 8-bit TIFF, but anything else it vomits
18:49 🔗 Nemo_bis well, 300 dpi might be enough then
18:50 🔗 Nemo_bis I'll never understand why people like TIFF though
18:52 🔗 balrog shaqfu: color? what size?
18:52 🔗 shaqfu balrog: Color, letter size
18:53 🔗 balrog ahh, ok
18:54 🔗 shaqfu Nemo_bis: Any other lossless alternatives?
18:56 🔗 balrog well, the way I process will cause some loss
18:56 🔗 balrog I use imagemagick's -levels
18:56 🔗 balrog and then knock down to 4bit
19:05 🔗 shaqfu balrog: I don't think they'd settle for any loss
19:05 🔗 shaqfu balrog: It's for a large university's special collections
19:05 🔗 balrog ahh :/
19:12 🔗 shaqfu (I thought about applying to work on the paper collection, but it's so insanely hard to get those jobs anymore)
19:12 🔗 shaqfu Like, two MAs and years of work hard
19:24 🔗 db48x` you could check archive.org to see how large their scans come out to
19:24 🔗 db48x` I think they're only 150 dpi, but you can scale up
19:27 🔗 db48x` and jpg instead of tiff
19:28 🔗 shaqfu db48x`: I'll check it out, but like I said, I don't think the library's doing anything less than lossless
19:28 🔗 DFJustin archive uses jp2
19:29 🔗 db48x` looks like a meg per page for this one, so call it four megs for 300 dpi, maybe 12 or 16 megs per page for lossless compression instead of lossy
19:29 🔗 shaqfu db48x`: Hm, interesting; that's about half the size of TIFF
19:30 🔗 db48x` you did say that they wanted more than 8 bits per channel though
19:30 🔗 shaqfu I'd imagine so
19:30 🔗 db48x` so your estimate may not be far off
19:30 🔗 DFJustin jp2 has a lossless profile as well
19:30 🔗 shaqfu I'd have to check the settings I was using on my project, but I was getting 40-50MB per page
19:31 🔗 shaqfu Well, it's an excuse to go in tomorrow and keep grinding away at these letters :P
19:31 🔗 db48x` :)
19:32 🔗 shaqfu I'm actually surprised; there's nothing out there that gives estimates of GB per ln ft for standard settings
19:33 🔗 db48x` heh
19:33 🔗 DFJustin http://studio.imagemagick.org/pipermail/magick-users/2004-May/012744.html
19:33 🔗 DFJustin dunno how good it is but worth a try
19:33 🔗 shaqfu DFJustin: Thanks
19:33 🔗 shaqfu WEll, gotta run; thanks for the advice
19:34 🔗 db48x` sounds like a fun project
21:21 🔗 ivan` Posterous at risk, maybe https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3695407
