There are software programs such as WinZip (for windows), 7zip (for Windows), p7zip (for Linux) or StuffIt Expander (for Mac, iOS & Windows), that provide more advanced features. The simplest option here is to share the files across 2 (or more) directories and create Zip files for each directory. There are a few options, depending on how technically minded you are: zip archive is larger than the per file upload limit (currently 2GiB), you should split the work up into 2 or more zip files.
The same commands should work on a Mac as well. unzip myFiles.zip.Īs Linux and Mac operating systems are both Unix based they operate very similarly. If you want to test that everything is as expected, you can extract the contents with the command unzip, e.g. Use quotes around the zip file or folder name if the name contains any spaces. The '-r' option tells zip to include files/folders in sub-directories.įor example: zip -r readyToUpload.zip "My Files for Copyright Registration" If you open a terminal console in the parent directory, or used the cd command to navigate there from the command line, you should then be able to run the command on the folder. Linux (and Mac terminal) command lineĭepending on the Linux distribution you may have different GUI options (or none), but you will almost certainly have zip installed as a command line program. If you want to test that everything is as expected, you can unzip a ZIP file, by right clicking on the file and selecting 'Extract All' from the context menu. If you are on a Windows desktop, right click on the folder, hover over/select 'Send to' on the context menu and then select 'Compressed (zipped) folder'. If you want to test that everything is as expected, you can unzip a zip file again, either by double clicking the file or bringing up the context menu and selecting 'Open with' and choosing the unzipping program (probably called "Archive Utility"). To compress the folder on an Apple Mac, select the the folder and bring up the context menu by either:Ĭhoose “Compress” from the shortcut menu. First get all the files that you need to submit together in a folder on your computer.įor most operating systems, the ability to create zip files should be already available to you without installing any extra software.
