Can any tell me how the newest Win Zip compairs to the newest Winrar?
I see that Winzip has some new type of lossless algorithm allowing a
great deal of lossless compression. I've always favored Rar (every since I gave up Arj) because it had better compression and IMHO it was just better all around. So can WinZip really compress Jpgs in a significant manors and do it better than Rar? What about Pdf files, Can the new WinZip compress these also? Thank Ron

On Wed, 26 Nov 2008 15:47:25 -0500, RC put finger to
keyboard and composed: So can WinZip really compress Jpgs in a significant manors and do it better than Rar? Can *any* software significantly compress an already highly compressed file? What about Pdf files, Can the new WinZip compress these also? Some PDFs are already compressed, others are not. Some PDFs are text based, others incorporate scanned documents. I suspect you are asking an impossible question. - Franc Zabkar -- Please remove one 'i' from my address when replying by email.
