About formats

DjVu (pronounced "deja vu") is a document format developed at AT&T Labs by Yann LeCun, Leon Bottou, Patrick Haffner, and Paul Howard, first released in 1996. The format was specifically designed for storing scanned documents and images at very high compression ratios while maintaining visual quality suitable for on-screen reading. DjVu achieves this through a layered approach: the document image is separated into a foreground layer (text and line art at full resolution), a background layer (photographs and textures at reduced resolution), and a mask layer that determines which layer is visible at each pixel. This separation, combined with purpose-built compression algorithms for each layer type, typically produces files 5-10 times smaller than equivalent JPEG or PDF scans. One advantage is exceptional compression on scanned pages — a 300 DPI color scan that might occupy 25 MB as TIFF or 500 KB as JPEG typically compresses to 40-80 KB in DjVu while preserving legible text. The progressive rendering model is another strength: DjVu files stream efficiently over networks, displaying a readable low-resolution version almost immediately while progressively refining to full quality. The format supports multi-page documents, embedded text layers for searchability, hyperlinks, annotations, and a shared dictionary mechanism that further compresses collections of similar pages. DjVu is widely used by libraries and archives for digitized historical documents and manuscripts.

DOT is the binary template format for Microsoft Word, using the same OLE2 compound document structure as DOC files. A DOT file contains a complete document framework — styles, page layout, margins, headers and footers, boilerplate text, macros, AutoText entries, toolbar customizations, and keyboard shortcuts — that serves as a reusable foundation for creating new documents with consistent formatting. When a user creates a new document based on a DOT template, Word generates a fresh untitled DOC pre-populated with the template's content and styling while leaving the original template file unmodified. The format supports every feature available in DOC, including complex formatting, embedded objects, form fields, and VBA macro code. The Normal.dot file holds particular significance as Word's global template, storing default styles, macros, and customizations that apply to all new blank documents. DOT templates became essential to enterprise document management, ensuring that legal contracts, business letters, technical reports, and corporate communications consistently adhered to organizational formatting standards. One advantage is brand and compliance consistency — distributing DOT files across an organization guarantees uniform document appearance without relying on individual users to manually configure styles and layouts. While the XML-based DOTX format has replaced DOT for modern workflows, the binary template format remains in use in environments requiring Word 97-2003 compatibility and in legacy template libraries.
