I wish to produce technical manuals where the user may want to zoom closer on a particular image

normally you do like this: (1) you create a page with the small image of the thing, say it is a Ford Model T car (or several small images, but let's keep the example simple) (2) you create another page and you put within this page a large image of the Ford Model T (3) you go back to the page wth the small image(s), then you apply a link to the image (right click the image, so a menu will appear with several selections). You may use Define special link so when the user clicks on the image you can set up that a popup will show, with the large image of the Ford (to do this, as "destination" page for the Popup link you select the page created at step 2) More complex things can be done for the HTML output: however to do more complex things you need to inert Javascript programming. There are sevaral books and websites for Javascript, and you find online a lot of examples. It is possible to insert and use any kind of JS with PK/RA. There is an important thing to know: as the software visually refers to things, in the javascripts you don't have to bother to insert file names for images... when there is a place where a filename is required, you click the button "insert image reference" (that is in the dialog Insert >Javascript) and a placeholder icon will be placed in place of the filename say abc.gif )
