you need to set the output filter to DEFLATE. it is optional, but you
can also specify the encoding it should act upon (see the apache manual).

http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_deflate.html has the details
you need.

according to this:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/mod_deflate.html#deflatefilternote

it can log the before/after sizes of the served pages, therefore
verifying whether deflate is indeed working.

you can always use netcat and do it via command line on windows to see
what response you get back.
