As far as I know, the ability to deal with this file formate requires the corresponding library to be used. Evince seems to be able to, but xpdf and gv are "just PS/PDF viewers", so this functionality hasn't been incorporated. Even though ImageMagic is a "heavy chunk of compiling", it is acceptably easy to use when installed ("display" command). Enabling DJVU option and recompiling it shouldn't pull too many dependencies into the system. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
