DjVu is great! - Larry Kelsey - 03-24-2004
Shlama Akhay,
I downloaded the DjVu software from lizardtech and it is absolutely fantastic! It's quite a bit like PDF and has some superb features. At one of our links, (Beth Mardutho), I downloaded William Jennings' Lexicon to the Syriac New Testament, a little over 240 pages in DjVu format. You have to right-click in the middle of the page for options like 'Thumbnails,' etc. It gave me a really small screen at first so I tried the F11 function key to get full screen capabilities but what works best is after the download has started for a while you can run the cursor to the outermost boundaries of the page until you get the little arrows pointing in opposite directions and do a click-and -drag stretching of the page size. That way you have a menu bar at the top for printing, zoom, etc. Right-clicking in the center of the page gives you a lot of options, too.
The 'Preferences' menu page has 'Display Preferences,' 'Printer Preferences,' 'Magnifying Glass Preferences,' 'Zoom Preferences,' also 'Hyperlink,' 'Cache' and 'Toolbar' Preferences.
Shlama w'Burkate, Larry Kelsey
