just one comment, at a quick glance a .g3 files converted to .gif does
not seem to increase too much (I have seen some 10% increase for a
lowres page of typewritten text, and a shrunk to half the original
size for handwritten header pages). If more extensive tests confirm
this, the visualization problem would be greatly simplified by
converting the files to gif at the server side.
Cheers
