My tool is very rough, and some recent tests show that is not sufficiently
generalized - it fails into some IA items; so I thing that it can
considered simply a proof that a tool, that uses IA jp2 images (that are
shown into the IA viewer IMHO) and djvy_xml can be merged into a
high-quality djvu file.
