I have to vote that I do care. DjVu is much more efficiently rendered at high resolution being designed for that purpose. In fact, DjVu format is efficient enough that often a direct scan of a document at 300dpi compressed to DjVu format is smaller and faster displayed than a PDF file of the same document. I believe some timings were reported in a previous thread around the bug ticket: #6223. A look at the ticket indicates it has been pushed back to 9.1.0. --Chris _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@lists.laptop.org http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
