为什么没有纯Java djvu编码器？

Question

如果没有可以对djvu进行编码的Java库，那么在尝试实现它时可能会出现什么样的潜在困难？

Answer 1

The DjVu file format is open, but a full reference encoder is not part of the standard:

DjVu is an open standard. The file format specification, as well as an open source implementations of the decoder (and part of the encoder) are available.

This is due to patents:

Several patents apply to two very specific aspects of DjVu and DjVuLibre. The patents cover a particular aspect of the ZP-coder (the arithmetic coder used in DjVu and implemented in libdjvu/ZPCodec.cpp) and the background masking technique used in the IW44 wavelet encoder (implemented in libdjvu/IW44EncodeCodec.cpp).

There is an outdated GhostScript to DjVu converter , which may serve as a encoder reference.
