Hi :) I think there is a feature request for DjVu already. If not it would be good to have. https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport I can't imagine we don't have one already though!
DjVu is an Open Format http://djvu.sourceforge.net/licensing.html Some general info about it http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DjVu Their website http://djvu.org/ Sadly it is not as well known as Pdf so most users wont be able to view documents until something is installed on their machines. I'm not sure this is a fight we could take on. It's tough enough getting ODF out there. On the other hand Adobe seems to be working hard to discredit PDF anyway so maybe a little push might help free people from that proprietary format. I think it's a discussion for a different list. I didn't realise PDF has it's own logo. I thought each PDF Reader gave it a different icon so show which program opens it by default. When i set Foxit as the default Reader all Pdfs change their icon to show Foxit rather than Adobe. If there is a more generic logo for Pdf then i guess we should be using that. The Docs Team gets around the issue by just writing the letters "PDF" and making that clickable. I'm curious what other people think about the 2 issues but i think Charles would admonish us if we tried to discuss it here. Probably best to join yet another mailing list if you are not already on the Discuss list.
