Many scientific studies are reported as PDF's, and the data is often necessarily conveyed in pics, making them essential for understanding the science being reported. I have no competence to translate PDF's into json, nor time to meticulously save each chart in a PDF and save it individually, nor do I actually know how to do that for a post made by another user, as ArcHive is.
I also am still recovering from a recent illness that has had me spitting blood and incapable of doing any useful work for about two weeks now. I hope Dan gets better with a quickness and is restored to the full vigor of his youth. However, I note he pays attention to you and responded quickly to your request, while he seemed to completely ignore me. If you have any interest in ArcHiving scientific research and better understanding of how PDF and image files can be ArcHived without users themselves supplying programming and meticulously saving each image and somehow implanting them in ArcHive's posts, you would seem to be far more potential of success in bringing those matters to Dan's attention than I.
I don't think it was just me, not setting rewards to burn was going to get the project on a list.
But, you do make a valid point.
Perhaps @theycallmedan will see this and help us out.
I hope so.
