What are .djvu files?

DjVu fileMaybe you don’t know but .DjVu files are scanned images with high quality and low size. Just like Wikipedia says:

DjVu (pronounced deja-vu) is a computer file format designed primarily to store scanned images (…) allowing for high quality, readable images to be stored in a minimum of space.

Progressive loading makes the format ideal for images served over the internet.

I’m using Lizardtech’s DjVu Browser plug-in (14MB) and reading Salvatore D., Reagle D. Statistics and econometrics (2ed., Schaum’s Outline, MGH, 2002).djvu.
You can browse several djvu files here.

    Isto cheira-me a um daqueles formatos usados pelas secretas. Muito interessante a qualidade do zoom a 1200%.
