- At this moment Image Service supports images in JPEG2000 format.
- they have to be stored in Europeana Cloud
- *preferably* they have to be converted from TIFF format using Image Conversion Service
- they have to be public public

Even though it is possible right now, it is highly recommended not to deliver JPEG 2000 images to Europeana Cloud but, to create a file in this format using Image Conversion Service. In this way we can be sure that the created file is fully compatible with the Image Service. It is highly probable that the ability to deliver bare JPEG2000 images to be later used in Image Service will be disabled in the future. |

se Europeana Cloud API to create Cloud Identifier, Record, Representation, File. (you may use developer tutorial for reference To store your TIFF images in Europeana cloud - simply use Europeana Cloud API to send files to Metadata and Content Service. Please check developer's tutorial to get to know the API.

Retrieve images using IIIF server
...
- change the beginning of the link from https://cloud.europeana.eu/api to http://test.iiif.europeana.eu/
- remove ".jp2" file extention from the end of the link
In case of our example the link would be: http://iiif.europeana.eu/data-providers/TheEuropeanLibrary/records/3000097619352NXM6XJWLW5AC4ZPPIAZFQ6UDWAXLXCGFWUTMDXPPPW7RMDKVIMNA/representations/presentation_images/versions/d3139491-fcc9-11e5-bc8a-fa163e60dd72/files/node-2/image/SBB/Berliner_Tageblatt/1903/10/05/0/F_SBB_00001_19031005_032_505_0_008 /

Accessing IIIF info files
Image metadata and a list of server capabilities is available through an info.json request, which provides information on the image and the functionality provided by the image server. In order to retrieve the information file for an image simply add /info.json suffix to the end of the URL e.g.
