Editing files from archives

<oXygen/> offers the means to manipulate files directly from ZIP type archives. By manipulation one should understand opening and saving files directly in archives, browsing and modifying archive structures. The archive support is available for all ZIP-type archives, for JAR and ODF formats and for IDML files which are also based on the ZIP archive format. This means that you can modify, transform, validate files directly from OOXML or ODF packages.

Using files directly from archives

Now you can transform, validate and perform many other operations on files directly from an archive. When selecting an URL for a specific operation like transformation or validation you can click the Browse for archived file button to navigate and choose the file from a certain archive.
