It is also easy to get b/w pages by simply choosing b/w display rendering or foreground rendering in djvu reader, when we want to get rid of those dark(yellow) backgrounds to make a contrast better on eink screen.

Those who nevertheless want to read pdf, can quickly export djvu to pdf beforehand, e.g. using DjView reader for PC (as color or as b/w for better contrast) or k2pdfopt app.

We can also use k2pdfopt to make a better copy of pdf from archive.org by simply using k2pdfopt's bitmap mode (native mode turned off and using better contrast) or by saving pdf as images (using some pdf editor or tool) and then combining those images back to pdf.

Pdf will be bigger but quick to open and flip through on eink or tablet.
