Portal
Archive files can be uploaded to the server's portal for extraction. All or individual files can be extracted from the archive and then processed using the portal.
In the portal, multiple existing documents can be selected and downloaded as a ZIP archive.
Web Services
Archive files can be extracted using the web service POST /documents/{documentId}/extract and processed as a single file in further web service calls.
Documents can be compressed into an archive using the POST /documents/compress web service.
If you try to convert an archive file using the "Converter" web service, only the contents of the archive are listed in the PDF document. The files in the archive will not be converted.
