So, a djvu document would be less sophisticated. It might not matter for
many cases, and one could probably make a backend to produce something
reasonable but it's not worth the trouble I fear. As mentioned, it's
probably easier to convert the pdf into a djvu with a postprocessor.

Understood. Thanks.
btw, it would be interesting to have a good open source jbig2 producer
(as that is natively supported in pdf) and it's a pretty efficient
compression (close to djvu)
