How do I navigate between pages in the viewer?

You can use the viewer_go_to_page tool to jump to a specific page number, or viewer_navigate to load a completely different range of pages without opening a new viewer window.

Does this viewer support text searching?

Yes, by providing ALTO/PAGE XML layers, the viewer can highlight specific terms on the document images, making it easy to find keywords in historical texts.

What is a Riksarkivet reference code?

A reference code is a unique identifier (e.g., SE/RA/420422/01) used to locate specific volumes or archival series within the Swedish National Archives.

Can I view documents without a reference code?

Yes, you can use the view_document_urls tool if you already have direct links to the image files (JPEG/PNG) and their corresponding XML text layers.

What is the maximum number of pages I can view at once?

The view_document tool defaults to a maximum of 20 pages per request to ensure optimal performance and loading speeds.
