What is a .DJVU file?
DjVu is a format for scanned documents and books, smaller than PDF for the same scan. Opened by DjView and others.
- Did you know
- DjVu, created at AT&T Labs in 1998, is read with DjView and other free viewers.
- DjVu splits a scanned page into separate text-mask, foreground and background layers, each compressed by its own method.
- Its developers later became pioneers of deep learning - DjVu co-creator Yann LeCun went on to lead AI research at Meta.
- What Analyser reads
- Identify e-book files: Kindle (MOBI, AZW, AZW3) and DjVu. FictionBook (FB2) now opens in a full reader (see Text & markup above).
- Depth of analysis
- .DJVU is an identification-grade format: Analyser recognises it from its bytes and decodes the header metadata it carries, rather than opening it in a full viewer. Formats that do get a full viewer are marked "Full" on the formats page.
- Open a .DJVU file
- Drag a .DJVU file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It is identified entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
