Testing out FairCopy as the lovely Juxta is no more. I created a project, but seem unable to add a jpg of a manuscript to the poject. The instructions mention an “add image” button, but it’s either not present or greyed-out.
Also - is FairCopy still an active project? Looks like most of the action centers around Recogito Studio.
Hi Les,
Thanks for writing! Yes, FairCopy is supported by Performant and actively used by a number of projects. Our contribution of new features and functionality tends to ebb and flow with funding, as with most projects in this space.
We don’t support local image upload anymore. I’ll make a note to update the documentation. The best way to bring images in is through the “Import IIIF” button. IIIF stands for International Image Interoperability Format. It is a way for you to use high resolution images of manuscripts directly from the holding institution. So, depending on the text you are editing, these images may already be available in this format.
Best Regards,
