Kia ora koutou

I was recently reminded of a file format that I discovered some time  
ago before the patent on LZW compression expired, making .pdf an open  
format. Where .pdf which is more designed for making downloadable  
copies of desktop published material, DJVU (pronounced 'deja vu') is  
designed to store hard copy materials that have been scanned, with the  
best possible quality, for a minimum of bytes of storage:

I'd be interested to know if any of the people on the list involved  
with digital archiving had tried DJVU, and what you thought of it.
