A first block of data is read (68). The first block of data is compressed (70) using one of three compression routines. The compressed data is stored (72) and if any additional blocks exist (74) they are retrieved (76) and processed (70, 72). If there are no more blocks to compress, the compressed data file is examined (78) to determine if it is at or below the required size (86). Another check is made to determine if further use of the routines will produce further compression (80). If further compression is possible using one of the routines, the output file is redefined as the source file (82) and is sent through (68-74) again. This repeats until the output file is at or below its required size (78) or until it is deemed that any further recursion of the data is fruitless (80). If, after multiple recursions, one of the routines is not capable of further compression, the compressed outputfile is assigned to the source file (83) wherein a fourth compression routine (84) is used. After the fourth routine (84), the resulting data is checked (86). If so, the process ends (88). If further compaction is needed it is again sent through (82) where the source file is set equal to the output file and again sent through (70-76) and if necessary (78-86).
