Sorry to disagree but I believe the Adobe PDF format
is here to stay and djvu is a limited use compression
format that is not directly supported by the major
operating system producers like microsoft, apple and
the various unix platforms. PDF viewers are generally
included on the install CDs of the above mentioned OS
platforms.
The point of my comment is that a lot of effort will
be spent producing the PremRx reference material and
it would be disappointing to have it in a format that
might loose support. I think Adobe is probably here
to stay. The compression advantage of djvu would be
lost if you could no longer read the files.
I vote NO on DJVU.
