If your DjVu file is anything like most PDF files, which is quite
likely, their content often is not formatted in a coherent way.  Things
are jammed into the file in any manner whatsoever just to be able to
render the thing on screen or paper.  They're not designed for editing,
and even copy and paste can only be done in small sections (e.g. you
couldn't highlight two paragraphs as two paragraphs, all the lines of
text on the page are disconnected phrases).

Sometimes the author has created a file which is a hybrid of a
graphical scan, that looks like the original document (perhaps a whole
page, but could easily be randomly sectional, like I just described),
**AND** has also included a textual rendition in the same place that is
invisible to when you view it, but can be copied and pasted elsewhere
as text.

Xournal (in various forks) seems to be aimed at creation of its own
files, and allowing annotation (the adding of your own notes) to some
other (e.g. PDF) files.  Or perhaps, it might be said, adding those
external files into one of its own.  Either way, that sort of thing
sometimes relies on using the same software to view the annotated
files, later on.  Again, you may find its ability to add to other files
will depend on how those particular files are formed.
