DjVu is a web-centric format and software platform for distributing
documents and images.DjVu was originally developped at AT&T
Labs-Research by Leon Bottou, Yann LeCun, Patrick Haffner, and many
others. In March 2000, AT&T sold DjVu to LizardTech Inc. who now
distributes Windows/Mac plug-ins, and commercial encoders (mostly on
Windows)
The LizardTech released the reference implementation of DjVu under the
GNU GPL in October 2000. DjVuLibre (which means free DjVu), is an
enhanced version of that code maintained by the original inventors of
DjVu. It is compatible with version 3.5 of the LizardTech DjVu software
suite. DjVulibre-3.5 contains:
- a standalone DjVu viewer based on the Qt library.
- A browser plugin that works with most Unix browsers.
(such as Mozilla and Opera)
- A full-fledged wavelet-based compressor for pictures.
- A simple compressor for bitonal (black and white) scanned pages.
- A compressor for palettized images (a la GIF/PNG).
- A set of utilities to manipulate and assemble DjVu images and
documents.
- A set of decoders to convert DjVu to a number of other formats.
- An up-to-date version of the C++ DjVu Reference Library.
