WinDjView e MacDjView

Una valida alternativa ai documenti in formato pdf è il formato DjVu , questo formato usa infatti un sistema di compressione che permette di ridurre il peso del file di parecchio (alcuni documenti che ho scaricato in pdf pesavano circa 60 mb in djvu solo 700 kb!!).
Ed è proprio per questo motivo che questo formato si sta diffondendo parecchio, per chi scarica con emule , sarà molto facile imbattersi in documenti con questo formato.
Per poter visualizzare il loro contenuto esistono due programmi WinDjView (per Windows...) e MacDjView (per Mac...).
