[NSRCA-discussion] Electronic KFactor Question

[Scott McHarg]

Hi all,

I have a question for you if you download the electronic KFactor.  The way
I publish the electronic version is through Adobe InDesign and turn it in
to a pdf.  I can make the issue high quality so that you can zoom in and
the pictures are nice and clear even at 400%.  The problem, of course, is
that with higher quality comes much higher file size.  I know some of you
view the issue on your iPad or smartphone and some may have a slower
internet connection.  The difference between the "regular" version
(typically 5MB) and a high definition copy (could be 35MB) is substantial.
 What I'd like to know is if the high quality version is important to you.
 I have the October issue online now.  There is the "normal" version that
I've been making for some time now (5MB).  I have placed a high quality
version online as well for you but I"m not sure if it's feasible to produce
both every month (specifically for disk space on our server).  **MAKE SURE
you know what version you are downloading.  Remember R.T.F.S. (Read the
flipping screen).  I would like to know what our membership likes/wants
especially since Jan is now producing the electronic issue in full color.
 I will also work with Derek to find out if we are on a specified disk size
or have "unlimited" disk space through our hosting provider.  If we are
unlimited and enough folks want it, I can always just produce both and let
y'all choose which one you want.

Thanks in advance for letting me know,
Scott
