Do you know what kind of compression ratios you get out of curiosity? Presumably it would be lower than this format (because this format is meant to be lossy not lossless) but very curious as a baseline.

Well there's your problem, you didn't say you wasted a million dollars doing something an expert can do in an afternoon.

Admittedly just scanned this but that’s lossless, right?

Wow dude. That is a hell of a README. Great job!
