💖 DJVMCVT(1) 💖

okay bestie, so this is djvmcvt from DjVuLibre-3.5, and it lives in section 1 of the manual (the "run it in your shell" section, iykyk). buckle up, we're converting multi-page DjVu documents and it's giving glow up ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

djvmcvt — Convert multi-page DjVu documents. that's it, that's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

so there's two whole moods you can run this in, and you gotta pick one, no in-between bestie:

Creating a bundled document:

djvmcvt -b[undled] docin.djvu docout.djvu

Creating an indirect document:

djvmcvt -i[ndirect] docin.djvu dir index.djvu

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so the tea is this: djvmcvt converts any multi-page DjVu document to either the bundled or the indirect multi-page format. pick your fighter, she supports both 🫶

and the input file, docin.djvu? it has to be one of exactly two things:

  • the file name of a bundled document, or
  • the index file of an indirect document.

that's the vibe check. anything else and she's not playing 🙈

💅 OPTIONS 💅

  • -b[undled] — creates a bundled multi-page DjVu document, and it gets named docout.djvu. one file, all the pages, cozy 🎀
  • -i[ndirect] — creates an indirect multi-page DjVu document. here's the thing bestie: all the files that make up the indirect document get stored into the directory dir, and the index file will be named index.djvu. so like, it's a whole little squad of files, not one big one 🌈
ngl the [undled] and [ndirect] brackets are literally just telling you the long form exists — -b and -bundled both hit, same for -i and -indirect. iconic behaviour fr fr ✨
