Syntax

mime_type = minimum_doc_size:[compression_level]

Description

The mime_type can contain a wild card pattern such as an asterisk ( * ) for the subtype, or it can be "*/*" to match all mime-types.

minimum_doc_size

The minimum_doc_size is an integer than can be positive, negative or zero. A size of -1 means do not compress this mime-type. A size of 0 means to compress the document regardless of its size. A size greater than 0 means to compress the document only when its initial size is greater than or equal to minimum_doc_size.
