44.11 Archiving deliverables

To archive output files assembled for distribution, DITA2Go can automatically run a command-line archiving program such as pkzip.exe, or WinZip command-line add-on wzzip.exe. DITA2Go composes and executes an archiving command based on values you supply for the archiving program and its parameters. For example, for wzzip.exe the command and basic parameters are as follows:

wzzip [options] zipfile [files...]

DITA2Go uses the following settings to put together the components of this command:
