Tot februari 2015 waren de gescande bladen enkel als afgeleide JPEG-bestanden bij deze dataset gepubliceerd. Op 25 februari 2015 zijn de scans van de bladen in de originele hoge kwaliteit TIFF-bestanden bij de dataset geplaatst en in plaats van de lagere kwaliteit JPEG-bestanden beschikbaar gesteld.

Up until February 2015, the images of the publications were only published as low-quality JPEG images. On February 25th, 2015, the original high-quality TIFF images were also added to the dataset file content and published instead of the lower quality JPEG images.
