Smaller size PDF of Puranas from Gita Press Gorakhpur (WIP).

Gita Press Gorakhpur has published their books in PDF, digitized scan images in Public Domain. The problem I faced was they are huge in size. You can get those books from here https://archive.org/   search Gita press in the search option. It will show various files. Some are old and some are new. New scanned images are very high in size. e.g. https://archive.org/download/brahma-puran-gita-press-gorakhpur


The PDF is 1GB and _jp2.zip file is 561MB. I downloaded this zip and converted jp2 to jpg files and made PDF 72MB in size. Its good quality and has small size. I will slowly build other PDFs and upload them for others to download. Since the work is still in progress not all PDF are ready to download at present.
