Hi,

another idea: djvulibre.


From the Debian package description:

  Utilities for the extraordinary DjVu image format
Executables including utilities for conversion between DjVu and other formats.
  DjVu is a set of compression technologies, a file format, and a software
platform for the delivery over the Web of digital documents, scanned documents,
  and high resolution images.

DjVu documents download and display extremely quickly, and look exactly the same on all platforms. DjVu can be seen as a superior alternative to PDF and Postscript for digital documents, to TIFF (and PDF) for scanned documents, to JPEG for photographs and pictures, and to GIF for large palettized images. DjVu
  is the only Web format that is practical for distributing high-resolution
  scanned documents in color.



I have never heared of this before,

High time then...   ;-)

but it seems to be OK, both the license and the package. Ok, installed.

Thanks.

Is actually anybody using this?

I am.

Cheers,
Kurt
