you may also want to encode and decode to/from base64

    function uncompress(str:String):ByteArray {
            import mx.utils.Base64Decoder;
            var dec:Base64Decoder = new Base64Decoder();
            dec.decode(str);
            var newByteArr:ByteArray=dec.toByteArray();        
            return newByteArr;
        }


    // Compress a ByteArray into a Base64 String.
    function compress(bytes:ByteArray):String { 
        import mx.utils.Base64Decoder; //Transform String in a ByteArray.
        import mx.utils.Base64Encoder; //Transform ByteArray in a readable string.
        var enc:Base64Encoder = new Base64Encoder();    
        enc.encodeBytes(bytes);
        return enc.drain().split("\n").join("");
    }
