Is this algo is suitable for compressing audio,video and images too?

There is no universal compression algorithm that can be used for all the data types you list. Audio compression is different from video compression which is different from image compression. This site focusses on print – and as such contains advice about various algorithms for images. Even for these there is no single algorithm that works best for all types of images. Depending on the type of image (black & white, grayscale, RGB, CMYK) a different algorithm is better. There is no easy answer because you do not provide much information. If, for instance, it is unacceptable for your customers to lose details in images, JPEG compression is out of the question.

I’m developing a software to compress various types of files like audio,video,images etc.
i want to know which would be the best algorithm.
i want to compress the files to the unreadable format and decompress them to readable format as required.

Yes, that algorithm is very suitable for compressing text.

Dear sir,
We are devolping a DMS Package ( Document Management System ) , and we very interested on the following:

1- Documents Compression
2- Documents Encryption
