• After installation I noticed that there's a 15 pages/5 minutes download limit and I uninstalled the program. Later I realized that seemingly this limitation comes from the server and the program has nothing to do with it. So accepting this I installed the program again. Works very well, it's easy to use. The program does everything quietly, completing the download is only a matter of time. Thank you for this program, very useful!

• Indispensable tool for handling Hathi Trust files. Greatly appreciated.

• HDH is wonderful - thank you so much for crafting and sharing it!

• HDH 1.1.7 works pretty fine on Linux ;) Everything works well except for merging the images into a single pdf, but this can be done a posteriori on the command line: #!/bin/bash pdfunite * ../../YOUR_PDF.pdf # or pdfunite *{01..10}.pdf ../../YOUR_PDF.pdf Thank you for your software!

• Very useful, thanks for your work! A new feature that would be nice would be a way to automatically resize all the downloaded images to the same size, since color images were scanned at different resolutions than b/w. Read more reviews >
