CompressContent

Document properties

Description

Compresses the content of the selected document. The Flate algorithm is used to compress the content, and the resulting page content streams use the PDF /FlateDecode filter.

On Windows, version 3.12.0 uses the bundled zlib-ng backend in zlib-compatible mode for this Flate compression path. Win64 builds link the bcc64x zlib-ng runtime SIMD object set, while Win32 keeps the compatibility-focused generic object set. Existing Delphi, ActiveX, DLL, and C++Builder calls do not need source changes.
