Often times when you download questionably sourced textbooks, they will not come with an outline. It turns out it is very simple to create one, using only djvulibre. All that is required is to create a text file containing chapter names, and numbers as S-expressions. Each section can also have subsections. For example, here is the outline I wrote for my djvu copy of Rudin's Principles of Mathematical Analysis:

The name is the first argument, the page number is the second argument, and the
rest are optional subsections. Then assuming your outline is saved in a file
called outline.txt
, run the following to get to add the outline to example.djvu
:
djvused -s -e "set-outline outline.txt" example.djvu
Something similar can be achieved with PDF files by using pdftk
