Instructies voor het Gebruik van de Extensie

Internet Archive(archive.org) holds more than 34 millions books for free access. Some mean to be read online by borrowing for a limit period. This extension can download these books for later reading.
HathiTrust Digital Library(hathitrust.org) support added. All books with full view permission can be downloaded at a click.

Usage
For Internet Archive(https://archive.org/):
After borrowing a book, two new buttons named "Quality" and "Download" will appear under the book viewer, beside the "Favorite" button.

To get current book as PDF file, click the "Download" button.
To get each leaf as a JPEG file, click the "Download" button with Ctrl key pressed(Command key on Mac).
With the download begins, the button will turn into a progress bar.

There are variant leaf qualities for each book which the extension keeps up to four levels. Click the stars on the "Quality" button to choose one. Default is the best quality(the original image, without scaled down).

For HathiTrust(https://hathitrust.org/):
No login, no borrows required. Once a book page loaded, a new section named "Ayesha" will appears above the "Download" section on the left-hand side of the page. Click it to show the download controlls. There are three items, named "Quality", "Tasks" and "Download".

To get current book as PDF file, click the "Download" button.
To get each leaf as a image file(JPEG and/or PNG), click the "Download" button with Ctrl key pressed(Command key on Mac).
With the download begins, the button will turn into a progress bar.

As for leaf quality controll "Quality", the first option is "full size", which will download every page in their highest size, but they may be much different between each others. Other options will download all pages in almost the same size.

The third controll is "Tasks", by which task number running synchronously can be selected. HathiTrust server does not allowed frequent access. The extension have to take some breaks during the download process. Choose a suitable task number to get the best experience.
