DjVu (pronounced like déjà vu) is a computer file format designed primarily to store scanned documents, especially those containing a combination of text, line drawings, and photographs. It uses technologies such as image layer separation of text and background/images, progressive loading, arithmetic coding, and lossy compression for bitonal (monochrome) images. This allows for high-quality, readable images to be stored in a minimum of space, so that they can be made available on the web.
DjVu has been promoted as an alternative[citation needed] to PDF, promising smaller files than PDF for most scanned documents. The DjVu developers report that color magazine pages compress to 40–70 kB, black and white technical papers compress to 15–40 kB, and ancient manuscripts compress to around 100 kB; a satisfactory JPEG image typically requires 500 kB. Like PDF, DjVu can contain an OCR text layer, making it easy to perform copy and paste and text search operations.
Free browser plug-ins and desktop viewers from different developers are available from the djvu.org website. DjVu is supported by a number of multi-format document viewers and e-book reader software on Linux (Okular, Evince), Android (VuDroid), Windows (SumatraPDF), and iPhone/iPad (Stanza).
(Wait for Piano to stop)
How can you just walk away from me?
When all I can do is watch you leave?
Cause we share the laughter and the pain
We even share the tears
Your the only one, who really knew me the most
So take a look at me now
No distance to let you face
And your coming back to me
It's against the odds
And that's why I gotta playyyyyy
I wish I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you
So many reasons why
Your the only one, who really knew me the most
So take a look at me now, no distance to let you face
And there's nothing left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Take a good look at me now, just still be standing here
And your coming back to me, it's against all odds
