    Article summary

    Applies to: Lasernet 11

    The modifier can compress the content of JobData into a ZIP archive or self-extracting archive (no other compression archives are supported).

    Compression modifier properties.

    If more than one Job needs to be compressed into a single ZIP archive, combining must be enabled.

    Settings

    A range of properties can be set to control the resulting ZIP archive.

    Comment

    Comment to be embedded in ZIP archive

    Password

    If the ZIP archive needs to be encrypted, a password is required.

    Encryption key length

    Length of the encryption key.

    Self-extracting archive

    Lasernet generates a self-extracting executable rather than a ZIP archive. The file extension will be .exe.

    Compression level

    The higher the value, the smaller is the ZIP file. A higher value takes a longer time. Lower values should not be used unless a real performance problem exists. Can be overruled at runtime via JobInfo CompressionLevel.

    Filename JobInfo

    JobInfo containing filename to be included in ZIP archive

    The FullFilename JobInfo must be specified. Paths are supported, excluding the drive letter.
