You're not permanently converting the document to PDF, it's just an
intermediate step.  You'll still have a djvu file at the end.

This was a suggested work around.  This is what I generally do for any
document type (eg. word, excel, rtf, html and so on).  I convert them to an
intermediate pdf file, which I then convert to swf using pdf2swf.

The overhead is negligible, and there's one corner by the way :P

I have previously agreed with you that djvu is more efficient than pdf, but
how is it more accessible?  What did you mean by that statement?

Hope all is going well?

Thanks,
Yousif
