 ===== Electronic Document Publishing using DjVu =====
+//Abstract//:
+Online access to complex compound documents with client
+side search and browsing capability is one of the key requirements of
+effective content management. "DjVu" is a highly efficient
+document image compression methodology, a file format, and a delivery
+platform that, when considered together, has shown to effectively
+address these issues. Originally developed for scanned color documents,
+the DjVu technology was recently expanded to electronic documents.
+The small file sizes and very efficient document browsing make
+DjVu a compelling alternative to such document interchange formats as
+PostScript or PDF. In addition, DjVu offers a uniform viewing experience
+for electronic or scanned original documents, on any platform, over
+any connection speed, which is ideal for digital libraries and electronic
+publishing. This paper describes the basics of DjVu encoding, with emphasis
+on the particular challenges posed by electronic sources. The DjVu
+Virtual Printer Driver we implemented as "Universal DjVu Converter"
+is then introduced. Basic performance statistics are given, and enterprise
+workflow applications of this technology are highlighted.
