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 DjVu is widely used by libraries and archives for digitized historical documents and manuscripts.

PPSX (PowerPoint Slideshow XML) is the Open XML counterpart to the legacy PPS format, introduced by Microsoft with Office 2007. Like PPTX, a PPSX file is a ZIP archive containing XML parts that describe slides, layouts, themes, and media assets according to the Office Open XML specification. The distinguishing characteristic is behavioral: opening a PPSX file launches the presentation directly in full-screen slideshow mode, bypassing the editing environment. This makes PPSX the preferred format for distributing finalized presentations where the audience should experience the content as a seamless visual narrative without exposure to the editing interface, slide sorter, or speaker notes panel. PPSX files support every visual feature available in PPTX including transitions, animations, embedded video and audio, hyperlinks, SmartArt, charts, and custom slide timings. One advantage is streamlined delivery — a PPSX file attached to an email or shared via a link opens as a polished presentation with a single click, requiring no instruction to the recipient. The XML-based foundation provides another benefit: PPSX files are typically much smaller than equivalent PPS files due to built-in ZIP compression, and their contents can be inspected or modified programmatically using standard XML tools. The format is supported for playback in PowerPoint, LibreOffice Impress, Google Slides (after upload), and various mobile presentation apps, ensuring broad cross-platform reach for distributed slide decks.
