Convert DJVU to PBM

The DjVu file extension, developed by AT&T Labs in 1996, stands for "Digital Journal Viewer". It is designed to store scanned documents and combine text, line drawings, and images with high compression efficiency. DjVu files are widely used for digitizing books, magazines, and historical documents due to their ability to produce smaller file sizes compared to PDF, JPEG, and TIFF formats. This format employs advanced technologies like image layer separation, progressive loading, and arithmetic coding, making it ideal for web distribution and archival purposes.
The PBM (Portable Bitmap) file extension, part of the Netpbm project, originated in the late 1980s to facilitate efficient and portable graphics file interchange. Primarily, PBM files are used to store monochrome bitmaps in a simple ASCII text format, ensuring easy compatibility across different systems and platforms. This format supports only black-and-white imagery, making it particularly useful in scenarios where simplicity and minimalism are prioritized, such as in Unix environments for bitmap manipulation and transfer. Its historical significance lies in promoting a standardized approach to bitmap graphics in early computer technology.
