In the world of computer design compress refers to the act of reducing the size of a digital file. A jpeg file format uses an algorithm to reduce the file size. This is done by eliminating some information in the file. Another method is to use a compression application like ZipIt or Stuffit to create an archive file that is compressed but retains all of the vital information.
