Hello,

Making ZIP Files (Compressed Files) in One Click

Where the instructions say: To create a compressed file, either Control-click on the file and choose Create Archive (which is Apple-speak for “make a compressed ZIP file”). When you control click instead of seeing "make a compressed zip file", you might see: Compress ... such and such file.

Note: The ZIP archives OS X makes with the Archive Utility are not Windoze compatible. They contain OS X hidden files and resource forks. Use Stuffit if you need Windoze compatible archives.
