The COMPRESS PICTURE command compresses the picture contained in the field or variable picture.
The parameter method is a 4-character string indicating the compressor type. You should pass one of the constants of the Picture compression theme in this parameter.
The parameter quality is an integer between 1 and 1000 indicating the quality of the compressed picture. In general, reducing the quality will allow for greater compression of the picture.
Warning: The compression ratio possible for a given quality depends on the size and nature of the picture you are compressing. Compressing small pictures may not produce any decrease in size.
