compression

I'm using WIA for scanning images and noticed, that images aren't stored efficiently as SaveFile apparently doesn't make use of compression. Currently I'm using this code: WIA.ImageFile img = (WIA.ImageFile)item.Transfer(WIA.FormatID.wiaFormatPNG); img.SaveFile(path); Is there a way to use WIA for compression, or how else could I save the image using compression? EDIT: Using the following code I was able to decrease file size from 25 to 10 MB. WIA.ImageFile img = (WIA.ImageFile)item.Transfer(WIA.FormatID.wiaFormatPNG); WIA.ImageProcess ImageProcess1 = new WIA.ImageProcessClass(); System.Object

well I am having a problem renaming the ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll file to anythig else. I am trying to shorten the file name. I reference the assembly in the project, but when the program reaches the statements where I use the library. It spawns an error that it could not find the assembly or file 'ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib'. When I change the file name back to ICSharpCode.SharpZipLib.dll the application works noramally. So, is there any way to change the file name. Also, am I allowed to change it without violating the license (I am going to use it in a commercial application). Thanks. You

Closed. This question is off-topic . It is not currently accepting answers. Want to improve this question? Update the question so it's on-topic for Stack Overflow. Closed 2 years ago . I have some data that has been compressed with the DEFLATE algorithm which I believe is basically just saying its zipped up. I'm writing a swift app and I was interested in figuring out if there is a native pure swift (2.0) implementation of the unzip algorithm. I need to implement this in a swift dynamic framework, and as such it would be preferable if i didn't have to use Objective-c code as that requires me

I've been supplied with a zipped file containing multiple individual streams of compressed XML. The compressed file is 833 mb. If I try to decompress it as a single object, I only get the first stream (about 19 kb). I've modified the following code supplied as a answer to an older question to decompress each stream and write it to a file: import zlib outfile = open('output.xml', 'w') def zipstreams(filename): """Return all zip streams and their positions in file.""" with open(filename, 'rb') as fh: data = fh.read() i = 0 print "got it" while i < len(data): try: zo = zlib.decompressobj() dat
