Google Book Search and public domain books

Hi all,

Is possible to download the PDF file for a public domain book instead of only the page snapshot?

I mean for titles like http://books.google.com/books?id=5JY5AAAAMAAJ&redir_esc=y

If your team thinks that isn't feasible to do it in the default Zotero translator, please tell me what lines I should change in my local copy.
  • I think we originally decided against this, since the files are often very large and we don't want Zotero to spring a 50MB download on unsuspecting users. Now I see that at least by default the download is also protected by a captcha, so it'd be harder - perhaps even impossible - to implement. You can certainly take a look, but I don't think anyone will have the time to customize this for you.
