Compress PDF attachments

I am trying to send multiple PDF files and I cannot get them to compress. I have gone through the prefrences under Entourage and set it to MacIntosh(stuffit) but then when I go to email the attachment it still says no compression?

If I remember correctly, Stuffit compression stopped working correctly at
some point. The best workaround is to compress the files manually in the
Finder prior to attaching them to an email message. To do so, select the
files you would like to send, then ctrl-/right-click them and choose
Archive/Compress from the contextual menu. Add the resulting ZIP file to
your message in Entourage.

FWIW, Stuffit compression is no longer part of Entourage 2008, which creates
ZIP archives instead.

Thanks,

I compressed the PDF files as you suggested but now I cannot get them to send. They get stuck in my Outbox and then I just get and error message.

I'm thinking it might be a size issue. After you zip, what size is the
attachment.
