Additional Information
We strongly encourage users to export their .sld files to OME-TIFF using the SlideBook software. Bio-Formats is not likely to support the full range of metadata that is included in .sld files, and so exporting to OME-TIFF from SlideBook is the best way to ensure that all metadata is preserved. Free software from 3i can export the files to OME-TIFF post-acquisition, see https://www.slidebook.com/reader.php.
3i also develops a native SlideBook reader which works with Bio-Formats. See http://www.openmicroscopy.org/info/slidebook for details.
