Abstract

A selective call communication system (100) includes an encoder (508) for encoding and compressing the data to form compressed data, and a controller (22) for transferring the compressed data to a selective call terminal (28). The selective call terminal (28) includes a receiver (302) for receiving the compressed data. A region detector (308) for recovering the compressed data within a predefined information region (42) and a processor (20) for processing the compressed data. The processor (20) includes an identifier (310) for identifying white spaces in the compressed data and an eliminator (312) for eliminating the white spaces being identified. A transmitter (30) for transmitting the compressed data being processed to at least one selective call receiver (40).
