How do I convert a DjVu document to PDF in Linux using only command line tools?

I've got some documents in DjVu which I'll like convert to PDF. Is there a way to do this using command line OSS tools?

djvu2pdf should fit the bill, it's a small script that makes use of the djvulibre toolset. If not, there are other methods that require multiple command-line tools.

"What about simply using DJView and export as PDF?

Goto Synaptic Package Manager (System - Administration - Synaptic Package Manager)
Install DJview4
Run DJview (Applications - Graphics - DJView4)
Open your .djvu document
Menu - Export As: PDF
