Hi, BitmapData class has a threshold method that does what Ashim mentioned which if you were to go to the extreme 0 and 255 of a pixel value you'd ultimately obtain a black and white image anyway. Main use of thresholding however is for image processing purposes which I will not go in depth here and not really to help save size because you won't be able to get your image back unless you save the pixel values of the original.
I'm guessing you might mean using the ByteArray class which can be used to store binary data and has a built-in compress method to boot.
