compressContentStreams() not working on PyPDF4 #64

compressContentStreams() is not working.

Is there any way to compress PDF files? I have exported a PDF file with 650 pages and it has more MB than the source PDF (more than 498 MB). I have used Adobe Professional to save as reduced file size and the new size is 3 MB.

Compression is really needed for PyPDF4

Frankly, PyPDF4 seems to be unmaintained at the moment.
