Bitmap File (Input File)

The scaled bitmap is displayed in this panel.

Compression Output

The runs of black and white pixels are displayed in this panel.

Total compression

The number of runs in the output is displayed in this field.

Compression Ratio

Compression Ratio = (number of runs)/(total number of the original pixels). A value of 0.09, for example, means that after compression the data occupies only 9% of the original file. Thus, a smaller value indicates better compression.
