Description


Zip and Unzip

Introduction

The Zip and Unzip Tool enables you to compress multiple files into a single .zip archive and extract .zip files into their original components. It is ideal for bundling files together or accessing compressed content easily, all within the browser. Note: This tool does not zip entire folders — only individual files can be selected and compressed.

Key Concepts:

- Zipping: Compressing multiple individual files (not folders) into a single .zip archive. - Unzipping: Extracting individual files from a .zip archive. - Compression reduces file size slightly and simplifies sharing. - Note: Only image and PDF files can be extracted from a .zip file. - Maximum of 12 files can be zipped at once. - Maximum of 10 files can be extracted from a .zip archive.

Features:

- Upload up to 12 individual files and generate a .zip archive for download. - Upload an existing .zip file (with max 10 image or PDF files) and extract its contents. - Each extracted file is available for individual download. - No server interaction — everything processed client-side for privacy and speed. - Simple drag-and-drop interface for ease of use.

How It Works:

- Zipping: • Select up to 12 files from your device (images, PDFs, or other files). • The tool bundles them into a single .zip file. • A download link for the compressed archive is provided. - Unzipping: • Upload a .zip file containing image or PDF files (maximum 10 files). • The tool lists all contained files. • You can download each extracted file individually.

Supported Formats:

- Input for Zipping: Any individual files (documents, images, etc.), maximum 12 files - Input for Unzipping: .zip files containing up to 10 image or PDF files - Output: • Zipping: .zip archive • Unzipping: Original image or PDF files contained within the .zip

Use Cases:

- Combine up to 12 documents or images for email or uploads. - Extract image or PDF contents of downloaded .zip archives (up to 10 files). - Share a batch of files as one downloadable unit. - Manage compressed file content on-the-go, right in the browser.

Limitations:

- Does not support zipping entire folders. - Only up to 12 individual files can be zipped. - Only .zip files containing a maximum of 10 image or PDF files can be extracted. - Folder structures are not maintained — only flat file lists are preserved. - Compression ratio depends on file types — text compresses more than images or media. - Upload size and file type limits may apply depending on browser and system.

Conclusion

This Zip and Unzip Tool provides a fast and privacy-respecting way to compress and extract files. With simple drag-and-drop support and no server dependency, it offers a convenient solution for managing zipped content — ideal for quick tasks that involve up to 12 files for zipping or extracting up to 10 image/PDF files. Folder support is not included, making it best suited for flat file operations.
