How to use this tool · examples & limitations

Create a compressed ZIP archive from multiple files.

Getting a reliable result

Begin with a few representative records, including an empty field and a non-ASCII character. Check field names and types after conversion.

Worked example

Bundle a text file and an image in a ZIP. Expect more compression of the text than the JPEG. The ZIP is an archive, not a replacement image or video format.

Limitations to check

Formats differ in their treatment of nulls, dates, comments and numbers. Converting between them can lose information.
