Thanks Jon, That's what I was hoping for. Now my main concern .... I had a simple uncompressed PDF that basically stated 'Hello World" in my PDF document. The actual stream content is: BT /F1 10 Tf 1 0 0 1 10 742 Tm (Hello World) Tj ET I've also included the "/Filter / FlateDecode" option into the Page dictionary. When I try to open my PDF document I get the following error messages: "There was an error processing a page. Too Few operands." "An unrecognized token 'ERT' was found." I did a search of the archives and found a post that stated there may be an issue with how the streams and endstreams are used in conjunction with compression. I've tried all manner of linefeed combinations but I keep getting the same errors. Does anyone have any ideas where to start looking?

If your data is in a form that can be passed to the compress function, you might as well use it.
