To save an existing project

To save a project using the compress feature
The compress feature allows you to save a project in compressed format so that the project data takes less space on
your hard drive. This utility also will save the graphics libraries associated with the project into the project file.
This facilitates sending a copy of the project to another person who has EZware in order to download the project
into an OIT.
