Have a look at http://www.gossamer-threads.com/lists/lucene/java-dev/ 38880?search_string=compression;#38880

The upshot is that you should compress the data yourself and then store it as a binary field (Field Constructor: public Field(String name, byte[] value, Store store) ). This way you can choose whatever compression model you think is best. I guess I would start by trying the zip functionality in Java to see if it gives you the level of compression you desire and then go from there.

All,

I need to store all the attributes of the document i index as part of the
index. And I need to get the size of the files as close to 20% of the
original size as possible. If anyone can help with this I can pay a nominal
fee. Please contact me if anyone can help.
