DJVU to ABW conversion is the process of transforming documents stored in the DJVU image-based format into the AbiWord (.abw) word processor format, enabling editable text and document structure. This conversion typically involves extracting images and OCR or text layers from DJVU pages and mapping them into ABW's document model so content can be edited in AbiWord or compatible editors.
