Clarification needed for p:uncompress? #622

Closed xatapult closed 1 month ago

xatapult commented 1 month ago

p:uncompress has a content-type option.

In the case this option is not specified the spec says the content-type is taken as application/octet-stream. OK.

But what happens with the source document's content-type property (which will always be there)? Is this ignored? The spec does not specify or explain this explicitly. What it says by not mentioning it (if I understand it correctly) is that it ignores this document-property. But is that true?

So two questions:

  1. What happens with the source content-type document property in p:uncompress?
  2. Should we say something more about this in the spec?

Sorry, I read it wrong. Forget this.
