This might be “Add to Zip file” “Add to Archive” or “send to Compressed folder”. Your compressed file will be saved in the folder you select. On a Mac computer, select the folder, right-click, and select “Compress”. The compressed file will be saved in the same folder.
The most important part of your portfolio description is that the year, number, and title of each image included in the portfolio description should match the number and title you have saved your image under in the .zip file.
