In ADE (on my PC), though, this doesn't seem to be the case, so people would only see the smaller image -- which is rather a drag.

Any suggestions? Here's a screenshot of one of the pages with one of the thumbnails, if you want to see what I was trying to do.
The tap on the image trick is not well supported with ePub 2 readers. (iBooks is really an ePub 3 reader in effect) It would be possible to place a second image somewhere else in the text (toward the end perhaps) and then provide a link in the text to that larger image. By the way what value do you see in the 18th century ct combination being preserved? I modified mine in a book I am working on along with the long s as not adding to the readability.
