djvumake - Assemble DjVu image files.
djvumake djvufile
[chkid=argument]...
Program djvumake assembles a single-page DjVu file djvufile by
copying or creating chunks according to the provided arguments. Supported
arguments are as follows:
- INFO=w,h,dpi
- Create the initial information chunk. Arguments w, h, and
dpi describe the width, height and resolution of the image. All
arguments may be omitted. The default resolution is 300 dpi. The default
width and height will be retrieved from the first mask chunk specified in
the command line options.
- Sjbz=jb2file
- Create a JB2 foreground mask chunk. File jb2file may
contain raw JB2 data, or be a DjVu file containing JB2 data such as those
produced by program cjb2.
- Smmr=mmrfile
- Create a MMR/G4 foreground mask chunk. File mmrfile
may contain raw MMR data or be a DjVu file containing MMR data.
- BG44=iw44file[:n]
- Create one or more IW44 background chunks. File
iw44file must contain IW44 data. Such files can be
obtained by compressing the background image with program c44 and
extracting the raw IW44 data using program
djvuextract. The optional argument n indicates the number of
chunks to copy from the IW44 file. Omitting the number of chunks copies
all available chunks.
- BGjp=jpegfile
- Create a JPEG encoded background chunk. File
jpegfile must contain JPEG encoded data.
- BG2k=jpegfile
- Create a JPEG-2000 background chunk. File jpegfile
must contain JPEG-2000 encoded data. The DjVu decoder does
not yet display files containing JPEG-2000 data.
- FGbz=(filename|{#color[:x,y,w,h]})
- Create a foreground color chunk describing one solid color for each
JB2 encoded mark. The argument can be the name
filename of a file containing the raw data. Such files are best
created using program djvuextract(1). Alternatively the argument
could describe a sequence of color zones. Each color zone specifies a
color name color, and optionally the coordinates
x,y,w,h of a rectangle. Each mark receives the
color of the last color zone whose rectangle intersects the bounding box
of the mark. The mark is painted black if its bounding box does not
intersect one of the zones. The rectangle coordinates are expressed in
pixels with the origin at the bottom left corner of the page. The full
page is assumed when no rectangle coordinates are specified. Color names
can be specified with exactly six hexadecimal digits, e.g.
FGbz=#FF8080, or by one of the following sixteen HTML color names
defined by the W3C, e.g. FGbz=#red.

black |

- FG44=iw44file
- Create a IW44 foreground color chunk. File iw44file
must contain IW44 data. Such files can be obtained by
compressing the background image with command c44 and extracting
the raw IW44 data using program djvuextract. Only
the first chunk is copied.
- FGjp=jpegfile
- Create a JPEG foreground color chunk.
- FG2k=jpegfile
- Create a JPEG-2000 foreground color chunk. The DjVu decoder
does not yet display files containing JPEG-2000 data.
- INCL=fileid
- Create a DjVu3 include chunk pointing to the component file named
fileid. The resulting file should then be included into a multipage
document using command djvm.
- Djbz=jb2file
- Create a JB2 shape dictionary. File jb2file must
contain raw JB2 data describing a JB2 dictionary.
- PPM=ppmfile
- Create a IW44 background chunk and a IW44
foreground color chunk by masking and subsampling the PPM
file ppmfile.
Assume, for instance, that we have a PPM image
myimage.ppm and an identically sized PBM bitonal
image mymask.pbm whose black pixels indicate which pixels belong
to the foreground. Such a bitonal file might have been obtained by
thresholding or color-keying the PPM image. We can then
produce a DjVuDocument image using the following two commands:
-
- cjb2 mymask.pbm mymask.djvu
djvumake my.djvu Sjbz=mymask.djvu PPM=myimage.ppm
The DjVu specification documents in the directory doc of
the DjVuLibre distribution provide the authoritative information about the
composition of a legal DjVu image file.
