Lucky for us all, making a ZIP file ( Compressing files to save room) is built-in for macs.
1. Select several files or folders
2. Right Click (Control Click with single button mouse)
3. Select "COMPRESS _ Items (example shows 3)
4. Your mac will make a compressed file
5. Automatically saved in the same location
Sadly, Mac always names the file Archive.zip. I suggest changing the name of this file to make it clear what files are zipped together. Just make sure you keep the .zip on the end.
Your original files will also exist unaltered.
