I tried both using the ECOReader native dejavu viewer.

As these are scanned images (basically a picture) they will only zoom out to the max width in landscape - text only just readable if you have VERY good eyes - I could just read it with my glasses on. On the 3rd press of the number 8 button (zoom) it auto rotated to landscape by itself and would not zoom any further. As I said before any GFX in a document will only zoom to maximum width in landscape and the document will refuse to go to a higher zoom mode.

This is what 'pan' would fix, but I haven't been able to find any reference to pan yet - will post back if I do.

EDIT: there is a plugin at Sourceforge for the v3 which has full 'pan & scan'. It sounds exactly what is needed, but I don't know if it works on the v3+ and it also needs to be compiled and only has 32bit linux info (I use 64bit LinuxMint) and haven't a clue how to compile - again, never needed to do it. Link follows:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/libdjvu/files/

EDIT2: found an old post (last item on page link below) from one of the members saying he had precompiled firmware for v3 with pan & scan - but download link is dead - maybe you could PM him. Link follows:
