There's a dearth of free tools using DjVu, but from what I understand there's no impediment to open source DjVu compile tools.
What do you mean a dearth of free tools? The djvulibre set seems to be a pretty complete set of tools.
I'll try the viewer plugin for Opera/Firefox. It looks interesting.
Oops, there's not yet a djvulibre browser viewer plugin for Windows (I use both Opera 7 and FireFox, so I got excited that I could view DjVu files using these browsers in Windows. But nada -- stuck with IE6 and LizardTech's plugin.) So for those who do most of their text and graphics processing on Windows, we're still stuck with the payware encoders from LizardTech. This may be one reason why DjVu has not taken off -- the djvulibre developers seem to have little interest at this time in encoders and viewers for Windows-based systems. Not exactly a great marketing decision. Jon
