Gentoo Linux: Publication Files Conversion
Posted on January 2, 2013
Sometimes it is necessary to convert between the publication formats. This may help to pass the mission…
DjVu to PDF Conversion
To convert a DjVu file into a PDF, use the following command:
$ ddjvu -format=pdf FILE.djvu FILE.pdf
Important Note
To be honest, it is definitely not an effective operation. Based on the scanned images content (text/pictures) included in the source DjVu file, the PDF size can increase 50 times (to hundreds of megabytes).
“DjVu is designed to compress the scanned images effectively and PDF sucks all the way.” – author unknown
