Djvu: Archival Format

by DMAJ on July 8th, 2009

Several years back I heard about the DJVU container. After all this time it does not seem to have a strong following (to my knowledge). As one may need to convert their file(s) over to say PDF to read on their portable device, there are two free programs that may help you out.

FreePDF XP (adds an option for you to ‘Print to PDF’ in your printer dialog, but limits number of PDF files you can make with this version), or Adobe’s Acrobat Standard, or better (also makes a printer driver ‘Adobe PDF’).
WinDjView to view the file, then simply print it to your PDF driver.

As I am currently talking about PDF files, there’s another interesting product out there, PDF Password Remover, the version 2.5 worked well, I can’t see why version 3.0 would not work better.

I’m glad it was of use. Talking of superior containers, it seems the Matroska Media Container (*.mkv) is picking up interest and support. LG has a BluRay player (BD350C/BD370C) that supports the h.264 codec (to me that’s cool!, I was pleased when DivX/XviD support started showing up in DVD players, I’m glad at least some of the manufacturer’s are keeping up with the times). HandBrake, a good DVD to MKV conversion freeware program has actually dropped DivX (*.avi) support all together. Good software (looks like they are getting subtitle support online, yay!).
