Does the ZIP tool preserve original filenames for records integrity?

Yes. Files are stored inside the ZIP using their exact original names. No renaming or modification occurs.

Are source files altered or deleted after the ZIP is created?

No. The ZIP is a new output file. Original uploaded files are not modified or deleted.

Can I archive mixed file types — PDFs, spreadsheets, and images — in one ZIP?

Yes. Deliteful accepts PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, TXT, PNG, JPG, and other formats in a single batch archive job.

What is the maximum size for a single archive batch?

50 files or 2GB per batch. For larger record sets, run multiple sequential batches segmented by record group.

Create Organized ZIP Archives for Records Management

Records managers moving documents to cold storage or transferring files between systems need a reliable way to bundle cohesive record sets without altering the originals. Deliteful creates flat ZIP archives with original filenames intact — ready for archiving or system transfer.

Archiving workflows require predictability: file X goes into archive Y with its name unchanged, and the process leaves the originals untouched. Deliteful's ZIP tool satisfies both requirements. Files are stored flat inside the archive using their original names, and source files are never modified. This matters for records integrity and audit defensibility.

Deliteful accepts all common document and data formats — PDF, DOCX, XLSX, CSV, TXT, and images — up to 50 files or 2GB per batch. For large archiving projects, batches can be run sequentially to build logically segmented archives (e.g., by year, department, or record type).

How it works

1
Select the record set to archive
Upload the files for a logical grouping — a fiscal year, a project, a department — up to 50 files per batch.
2
Name the archive with your retention convention
Apply your organization's naming standard, e.g., 'Finance_2023_Q4_Records.zip', for retrieval consistency.
3
Download and store
Move the ZIP to your cold storage system, document management platform, or backup destination.
