Berlin, Germany – October 8th, 2002
PdfCompress version 2.0 add CCITT Group 4 (Fax) compression
metaobject today released version 2.0 of its popular PDF compression
tool for Mac OS X. Apart from the usual performance improvements and
bug fixes, version 2.0 now adds a second compression methods. In
addition to photographic images, which are still compressed using the
JPEG method, PdfCompress now also compresses bi-level images using
the lossless CCITT Group 4 compression method used in Fax
transmission.
In addition, we’ve also improved demo mode to be less confusing.
What hasn’t changed is PdfCompress’s high performance and ease of
use: just drag a PDF file onto its icon and it is compressed almost
instantaneously.
