DjVu.js Viewer Firefox

DjVu.js Viewer

The extension is a local copy of the DjVu.js Viewer which is available on https://djvu.js.org/. It allows you to open links to .djvu files right in the browser and .djvu files from a local drive. Also, it processes tag with .djvu files.

Features & Capabilities

DjVu.js Viewer is a secure Chrome extension that enables you to open and view .djvu files directly in your browser, whether from online links or local storage. It supports processing of <embed> and <object> tags containing .djvu files, effectively replacing the need for Cuminas' native DjVu plug-in. Since all processing happens locally on your machine, it works offline and ensures complete privacy with no data collected or transmitted.

Based on the open-source DjVu.js library, this extension can bundle multi-file DjVu documents into one, delivering a smooth and integrated viewing experience for DjVu file formats. Its source code is freely available on GitHub, and users are encouraged to contribute by reporting any issues to further enhance the open-source project.
