Support for DjVu format

Open SubZeroPL opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Describe your suggested feature

I think it would be nice if Komga had support for new format: DjVu. This format (as far as I know) is mostly used for newspapers, magazines etc. Format is open source so I think it's implementing should not be very difficult.

Format is open source so I think

There's no java library for this format, probably because no one is actually using it 🤷🏻

To bo honest it's used, especially for scanned books/documents (but PDF is more mainstream, even though it's less good for that).

But yeah never seen it used for comics/mangas/BD, so not really relevant to Komga IMHO.

And even though format is open-source, it doesn't seem to be patent-free...

There is a js lib/viewer for djvu - djvujs.
