12 Set device-compression level. Only used for drivers that provide com‐
13 pression. This function, if used, should be invoked before a call to
14 plinit(3plplot).

21 compression (PLINT(3plplot), input)
22 The desired compression level. This is a device-dependent value.
23 Currently only the jpeg and png devices use these values. For
24 jpeg value is the jpeg quality which should normally be in the
25 range 0-95. Higher values denote higher quality and hence larger
26 image sizes. For png values are in the range -1 to 99. Values of
27 0-9 are taken as the compression level for zlib. A value of -1
28 denotes the default zlib compression level. Values in the range
29 10-99 are divided by 10 and then used as the zlib compression
30 level. Higher compression levels correspond to greater compres‐
31 sion and small file sizes at the expense of more computation.
