## BUGS

Using a web-based encoder server is a stop-gap measure until better encoders enjoy wide free distribution.

There is a security issue in operating on documents not intended for widespread distribution, which could be partially although not completely ameliorated by using a secure web connection.

## SEE ALSO

The entire djvu suite, eg [djvu(1)](/djvu/1.md), [djview(1)](/djview/1.md), and djvuserver(1).
