Note
As of Islandora 7.x-1.3, all solution packs make use of the print hook, which will add a "print" button to collection and object pages. This button can be toggled on or off at Administration » Islandora.

What file types can be used with each solution pack?

File types: GIF, JPG, PNG
Display: Users can view a smaller version of the image on the object's View tab, or click the image to view it full-size in their browser.
System-Generated Derivatives: A JPG thumbnail derivative and a medium-sized JPG access derivative.

File types: TIFF and JP2 (see note)
Display: Images display in the Open Seadragon viewer, a pan-and-zoom interface that allows for the "clipping" of the currently viewed portion of the image.
System-Generated Derivatives: A lossless JPEG2000 of the original TIFF image; JPEG2000 image "tiles" generated on demand for the zoom and clip functions; a JPG thumbnail derivative, and a medium-sized JPG access derivative.
Note: Islandora supports only JPEG2000 "Part 1" files, typically with the extension JP2. "Part 2" files, with the extended color map and other options, are not supported (typically with the extension JPX).

File types: PDF
Display: A JPG preview of the first page of the PDF shows on the View tab. Clicking the preview loads the PDF in the browser window. Default installations of Islandora 7.x do not include a separate PDF viewer.
System-Generated Derivatives: A JPG thumbnail derivative; a medium-sized JPG preview derivative; extracted full-text when available. Full text is generally able to be extracted from "born digital PDFs" created from a MS Word document or other system. Full text can also be extracted from PDFs of scanned physical documents that have OCR embedded.

File types: MP3, WAV recommended; others are possible
Display: Two players are available for audio: JWPlayer or video.js. For audio files, a default icon will show in the "video" portion of the player.
System-Generated Derivatives: A proxy mp3 is created for playback in the browser. This mp3 is medium-quality.

File types: MP4 recommended; others are possible
Display: Two players are available for video: JWPlayer or video.js. A system-created thumbnail extracted from the video displays in the player before you press play.
System-Generated Derivatives: A MP4 derivative for playback; a JPG thumbnail extracted from a frame of the video.

File types: TIFF and JP2 page images, or a PDF of an entire book that Islandora will disassemble into page images.
Display: The display of the entire book uses the Internet Archive book reader, which has controls for paging through the book, zooming into details on an individual page, and searching the book contents. Individual book pages can also be viewed using the same pan-and-zoom interface as the Large Image content model.
System-Generated Derivatives: Optical Character Recognition (OCR) is performed on each page of the book, and the resulting text is stored as a datastream and indexed by the search system.

File types: Any combination of other content models.
Display: The first of the sequence of objects is displayed, with a list of the other objects in the compound object in a sidebar and Next and Previous links to navigate through the associated objects.
System-Generated Derivatives: None

File types: TIFF and JP2 page images, or a PDF of an entire book that Islandora will disassemble into page images.
Display: Individual issues are listed in a year-and-month selection display. The issues themselves are displayed in the Internet Archive bookreader with the same controls as the Book content model.
System-Generated Derivatives: Same as the Book content model.
