Some of our suppliers use these type of files. They don't seem to do anything different than pdfs.

the big difference is in terms of the footprint. dvju's have a much higher compressions ratio than pdfs and are a much more efficient way of storing large documents.

WinDjView is probably the best of the readers for windows imo.
