## Class FlateFilter

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.fop.pdf.PDFFilter
  - - org.apache.fop.pdf.FlateFilter

-     public class FlateFilter
      extends PDFFilter

  A filter to deflate a stream.

  Note that the attributes for prediction, colors, bitsPerComponent, and columns are not supported when this filter is used to handle the data compression. They are only valid for externally encoded data such as that from a graphics file.
