I tried just one more thing using the convertio site. I converted an 9×12 odt book to djvu. After some few minutes, I was able to download a 2.4 MB 9×12 djvu.
The original odt file has a size of 353 k. The 9×12 pdf produced with LibreOffice is a 1.6MB 9×12 file. So the resulting djvu file is way bigger than the pdf.

Furthermore, while the pdf is a very exact copy of the odt, the djvu has some defects for the display of some titles, small caps, etc.

So, unless some new information comes in, I think it's about time to give up my idea.
This is the second group you have posted the same idea too and you didn't pay attention to the answer given to you before. If the PDF is pictures of text instead of text then the djVu would indeed be smaller. But if the text is actual text in the PDF then it will be smaller. It would take a lot of black and white line drawings to favor DjVu. PDF can be either pictures of text (archiving of actual books) or it can be text. It can sometimes be hard to tell them apart. Did you look in the wiki as I told you to do?
