We are currently doing work which requires compression of greyscale images.
The emphhasis should be on speed more than on size reduction. I've heard that
hypercard performs some type of compression of the images that it uses. Is this
so? How is it done? Pointers to information or hints of any kind would be      
greatly appreciated.
