I should just combine the images
into a single Djvu file, or maybe one Djvu
volume for each month or year of the newspaper,
but each of these JPG files is 11 megabytes.
you should try.
a djvu will not necessarily be as large as you think
For several other reasons, it turned out to an advantage
to create one Djvu for each day of the newspaper.
The JPEG size is 11 megabytes/page, the Djvu 2,5 MB/page,
so less than one quarter of the size. This also gives me
an Index: page for each day, and I need a new overview
page for the whole newspaper, which I shaped to
look like a calendar,

So far, only the month of January 1836 has been
uploaded in full and only 7 days have been
proofread (yellow).
