Digitization of ancient texts is an essential approach to protect and utilize the ancient books, and an important way to inherit the excellent traditional culture. The construction of the high-definition image database of the Yongle Dadian is an important practice in the digital construction and utilization of the Yongle Dadian, which comprehensively demonstrates the style and version of the Yongle Dadian, and promotes the systematization of the knowledge, and the utilization of the intellectualization. Based on this, this study adopted the case study method, taking the “Yongle Dadian High-definition Image Database” project as an example, and summarized the practical work of the digital construction from two aspects: integrating resources and collaborative construction, and synthesized the main points of the digital utilization from five aspects: knowledge annotating, citation retrieving, 3D models interacting, ancient book circulation trajectory visualizing. In addition, some problems with the project were discovered, such as incomplete collection of the ancient books, imperfect quality, insufficient publicity channels and imperfect incentive mechanism. This study proposes relevant mitigation strategies and provides suggestions that aim to improve the High-definition Image Database of Yongle Dadian and promote the construction and utilization of the digitization of ancient texts.
