Why are some of the pages upside down?

This is beautiful! I am having some difficulty with the UI; is there a torrent? Images like https://codex-atlanticus.ambrosiana.it/assets/500/000R-1.jpg are too low in resolution for good archival; you can't even read the writing.

Manipulate the URL for a higher resolution:

You don't need to depend on others to create a torrent, as bestowed upon you was the power of wget!

Any idea on how to best compile it to an ebook? Just stuffing the jpgs into a pdf rarely works well...

I haven't that done this in some time, but templating some markdown code for pandoc and creating an ebup might be a viable avenue.
