+The zlib-flate program reads from standard input and writes to
+standard output either compressing or compressing its input using raw
+zlib compression. It can be used to uncompress or compress raw PDF
+streams or other data that is compressed with raw zlib compression.
+This program is provided primarily as a debugging tool, though it
+could be used for other purposes, such as being called from a script
+that creates simple PDF files.
.PP
This program should not be used as a general purpose compression
tool. Use something like gzip(1) instead.
