Abstract
A fan data compression method is presented that tripled laser printer speed for Bode and simulation plots with many points. This reduced printer delays without the expense of a faster laser printer, and it saved computer time as well. The authors describe their problem, solution, and conclusions. They give the fan algorithm and present its performance for several applications. They include a pseudocode implementation.<>
