The document provides instructions for zipping multiple files on Windows 7 or Vista computers in 4 steps: dragging to select multiple files, holding control to select specific files, right clicking and selecting "Compressed (zipped) folder" from the menu, and compressing the files into a single zipped file. It notes that zipping compresses files into a single file, allowing multiple files to be emailed or submitted as one file where limited. The process does not actually reduce file sizes but changes the file format.

1. In 4 simple steps

2. Dragging your mouse allows you to select many files
at once
Holding the control button allows you to select
specific files at once

6. Your zipped file will probably look different than
mine, I installed a special zipping program on my
computer and it changes how zipped files look on my
computer, but none of these steps used that other
software.
Your “right click menu” may appear somewhat
different from mine, but yours should still have the
same “Send to”  “Compressed (zipped) folder”
option

7. These instructions only work on Windows 7 and (I
think) Windows Vista. Previous versions of windows
won’t have the automatic zipping capabilities installed and
require additional software to zip/unzip files.
What is the point of zipping files?
 Compresses multiple files into a single file.
 Good for e-mailing or submitting a “single file” when you’re
restricted to how many files you can send
 Good for changing the file format to something that will be
accepted by our dropboxes)
Despite the word “compress”, you’re not actually making
your documents smaller. (compressing won’t turn a 30MB
file into a 20 MB file)

8. Feel free to send me an e-mail.
Hope this was helpful
