1.0 Introduction
---------------

1.1 Purpose
-----------

   1.1.1 This specification is intended to define a cross-platform,
   interoperable file storage and transfer format.  Since its 
   first publication in 1989, PKWARE, Inc. ("PKWARE") has remained 
   committed to ensuring the interoperability of the .ZIP file 
   format through periodic publication and maintenance of this 
   specification.  We trust that all .ZIP compatible vendors and 
   application developers that use and benefit from this format 
   will share and support this commitment to interoperability.

1.2 Scope
---------

   1.2.1 ZIP is one of the most widely used compressed file formats. It is 
   universally used to aggregate, compress, and encrypt files into a single
   interoperable container. No specific use or application need is 
   defined by this format and no specific implementation guidance is 
   provided. This document provides details on the storage format for 
   creating ZIP files.  Information is provided on the records and 
   fields that describe what a ZIP file is.

4.0 ZIP Files
-------------

4.1 What is a ZIP file
----------------------

   4.1.1 ZIP files MAY be identified by the standard .ZIP file extension 
   although use of a file extension is not required.  Use of the 
   extension .ZIPX is also recognized and MAY be used for ZIP files.  
   Other common file extensions using the ZIP format include .JAR, .WAR, 
   .DOCX, .XLSX, .PPTX, .ODT, .ODS, .ODP and others. Programs reading or 
   writing ZIP files SHOULD rely on internal record signatures described 
   in this document to identify files in this format.

   4.1.2 ZIP files SHOULD contain at least one file and MAY contain 
   multiple files.  

   4.1.3 Data compression MAY be used to reduce the size of files
   placed into a ZIP file, but is not required.  This format supports the 
   use of multiple data compression algorithms.  When compression is used, 
   one of the documented compression algorithms MUST be used.  Implementors 
   are advised to experiment with their data to determine which of the 
   available algorithms provides the best compression for their needs.
   Compression method 8 (Deflate) is the method used by default by most 
   ZIP compatible application programs.  


   4.1.4 Data encryption MAY be used to protect files within a ZIP file. 
   Keying methods supported for encryption within this format include
   passwords and public/private keys.  Either MAY be used individually
   or in combination. Encryption MAY be applied to individual files.  
   Additional security MAY be used through the encryption of ZIP file 
   metadata stored within the Central Directory. See the section on the 
   Strong Encryption Specification for information. Refer to the section 
   in this document entitled "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology 
   into Your Product" for more information.

   4.1.5 Data integrity MUST be provided for each file using CRC32.  
   
   4.1.6 Additional data integrity MAY be included through the use of 
   digital signatures.  Individual files MAY be signed with one or more 
   digital signatures. The Central Directory, if signed, MUST use a 
   single signature.  

   4.1.7 Files MAY be placed within a ZIP file uncompressed or stored. 
   The term "stored" as used in the context of this document means the file 
   is copied into the ZIP file uncompressed.  

   4.1.8 Each data file placed into a ZIP file MAY be compressed, stored, 
   encrypted or digitally signed independent of how other data files in the 
   same ZIP file are archived.

   4.1.9 ZIP files MAY be streamed, split into segments (on fixed or on
   removable media) or "self-extracting".  Self-extracting ZIP 
   files MUST include extraction code for a target platform within 
   the ZIP file.  

   4.1.10 Extensibility is provided for platform or application specific
   needs through extra data fields that MAY be defined for custom
   purposes.  Extra data definitions MUST NOT conflict with existing
   documented record definitions.  

   4.1.11 Common uses for ZIP MAY also include the use of manifest files.  
   Manifest files store application specific information within a file stored 
   within the ZIP file.  This manifest file SHOULD be the first file in the 
   ZIP file. This specification does not provide any information or guidance on 
   the use of manifest files within ZIP files.  Refer to the application developer
   for information on using manifest files and for any additional profile
   information on using ZIP within an application.

   4.1.12 ZIP files MAY be placed within other ZIP files.

4.2 ZIP Metadata
----------------

   4.2.1 ZIP files are identified by metadata consisting of defined record types 
   containing the storage information necessary for maintaining the files 
   placed into a ZIP file.  Each record type MUST be identified using a header 
   signature that identifies the record type.  Signature values begin with the 
   two byte constant marker of 0x4b50, representing the characters "PK".


4.3 General Format of a .ZIP file
---------------------------------

   4.3.1 A ZIP file MUST contain an "end of central directory record". A ZIP 
   file containing only an "end of central directory record" is considered an 
   empty ZIP file.  Files MAY be added or replaced within a ZIP file, or deleted. 
   A ZIP file MUST have only one "end of central directory record".  Other 
   records defined in this specification MAY be used as needed to support 
   storage requirements for individual ZIP files.

   4.3.2 Each file placed into a ZIP file MUST be preceded by  a "local 
   file header" record for that file.  Each "local file header" MUST be 
   accompanied by a corresponding "central directory header" record within 
   the central directory section of the ZIP file.

   4.3.3 Files MAY be stored in arbitrary order within a ZIP file.  A ZIP 
   file MAY span multiple volumes or it MAY be split into user-defined 
   segment sizes. All values MUST be stored in little-endian byte order unless 
   otherwise specified in this document for a specific data element. 

   4.3.4 Compression MUST NOT be applied to a "local file header", an "encryption
   header", or an "end of central directory record".  Individual "central 
   directory records" MUST NOT be compressed, but the aggregate of all central
   directory records MAY be compressed.    

   4.3.5 File data MAY be followed by a "data descriptor" for the file.  Data 
   descriptors are used to facilitate ZIP file streaming.  

 
   4.3.6 Overall .ZIP file format:

      [local file header 1]
      [encryption header 1]
      [file data 1]
      [data descriptor 1]
      . 
      .
      .
      [local file header n]
      [encryption header n]
      [file data n]
      [data descriptor n]
      [archive decryption header] 
      [archive extra data record] 
      [central directory header 1]
      .
      .
      .
      [central directory header n]
      [zip64 end of central directory record]
      [zip64 end of central directory locator] 
      [end of central directory record]


   4.3.7  Local file header:

      local file header signature     4 bytes  (0x04034b50)
      version needed to extract       2 bytes
      general purpose bit flag        2 bytes
      compression method              2 bytes
      last mod file time              2 bytes
      last mod file date              2 bytes
      crc-32                          4 bytes
      compressed size                 4 bytes
      uncompressed size               4 bytes
      file name length                2 bytes
      extra field length              2 bytes

      file name (variable size)
      extra field (variable size)

   4.3.8  File data

      Immediately following the local header for a file
      SHOULD be placed the compressed or stored data for the file.
      If the file is encrypted, the encryption header for the file 
      SHOULD be placed after the local header and before the file 
      data. The series of [local file header][encryption header]
      [file data][data descriptor] repeats for each file in the 
      .ZIP archive. 

      Zero-byte files, directories, and other file types that 
      contain no content MUST NOT include file data.

   4.3.9  Data descriptor:

        crc-32                          4 bytes
        compressed size                 4 bytes
        uncompressed size               4 bytes

      4.3.9.1 This descriptor MUST exist if bit 3 of the general
      purpose bit flag is set (see below).  It is byte aligned
      and immediately follows the last byte of compressed data.
      This descriptor SHOULD be used only when it was not possible to
      seek in the output .ZIP file, e.g., when the output .ZIP file
      was standard output or a non-seekable device.  For ZIP64(tm) format
      archives, the compressed and uncompressed sizes are 8 bytes each.

      4.3.9.2 When compressing files, compressed and uncompressed sizes 
      SHOULD be stored in ZIP64 format (as 8 byte values) when a 
      file's size exceeds 0xFFFFFFFF.   However ZIP64 format MAY be 
      used regardless of the size of a file.  When extracting, if 
      the zip64 extended information extra field is present for 
      the file the compressed and uncompressed sizes will be 8
      byte values.  

      4.3.9.3 Although not originally assigned a signature, the value 
      0x08074b50 has commonly been adopted as a signature value 
      for the data descriptor record.  Implementers SHOULD be 
      aware that ZIP files MAY be encountered with or without this 
      signature marking data descriptors and SHOULD account for
      either case when reading ZIP files to ensure compatibility.

      4.3.9.4 When writing ZIP files, implementors SHOULD include the
      signature value marking the data descriptor record.  When
      the signature is used, the fields currently defined for
      the data descriptor record will immediately follow the
      signature.

      4.3.9.5 An extensible data descriptor will be released in a 
      future version of this APPNOTE.  This new record is intended to
      resolve conflicts with the use of this record going forward,
      and to provide better support for streamed file processing.

      4.3.9.6 When the Central Directory Encryption method is used, 
      the data descriptor record is not required, but MAY be used.  
      If present, and bit 3 of the general purpose bit field is set to 
      indicate its presence, the values in fields of the data descriptor
      record MUST be set to binary zeros.  See the section on the Strong 
      Encryption Specification for information. Refer to the section in 
      this document entitled "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology 
      into Your Product" for more information.


   4.3.10  Archive decryption header:  

      4.3.10.1 The Archive Decryption Header is introduced in version 6.2
      of the ZIP format specification.  This record exists in support
      of the Central Directory Encryption Feature implemented as part of 
      the Strong Encryption Specification as described in this document.
      When the Central Directory Structure is encrypted, this decryption
      header MUST precede the encrypted data segment.  

      4.3.10.2 The encrypted data segment SHALL consist of the Archive 
      extra data record (if present) and the encrypted Central Directory 
      Structure data.  The format of this data record is identical to the 
      Decryption header record preceding compressed file data.  If the 
      central directory structure is encrypted, the location of the start of
      this data record is determined using the Start of Central Directory
      field in the Zip64 End of Central Directory record.  See the 
      section on the Strong Encryption Specification for information
      on the fields used in the Archive Decryption Header record.
      Refer to the section in this document entitled "Incorporating 
      PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for more information.


   4.3.11  Archive extra data record: 

        archive extra data signature    4 bytes  (0x08064b50)
        extra field length              4 bytes
        extra field data                (variable size)

      4.3.11.1 The Archive Extra Data Record is introduced in version 6.2
      of the ZIP format specification.  This record MAY be used in support
      of the Central Directory Encryption Feature implemented as part of 
      the Strong Encryption Specification as described in this document.
      When present, this record MUST immediately precede the central 
      directory data structure.  

      4.3.11.2 The size of this data record SHALL be included in the 
      Size of the Central Directory field in the End of Central 
      Directory record.  If the central directory structure is compressed, 
      but not encrypted, the location of the start of this data record is 
      determined using the Start of Central Directory field in the Zip64 
      End of Central Directory record. Refer to the section in this document 
      entitled "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your 
      Product" for more information.

        signature data (variable size)

      With the introduction of the Central Directory Encryption 
      feature in version 6.2 of this specification, the Central 
      Directory Structure MAY be stored both compressed and encrypted. 
      Although not required, it is assumed when encrypting the
      Central Directory Structure, that it will be compressed
      for greater storage efficiency.  Information on the
      Central Directory Encryption feature can be found in the section
      describing the Strong Encryption Specification. The Digital 
      Signature record will be neither compressed nor encrypted.

   4.3.14  Zip64 end of central directory record

        zip64 end of central dir 
        signature                       4 bytes  (0x06064b50)
        size of zip64 end of central
        directory record                8 bytes
        version made by                 2 bytes
        version needed to extract       2 bytes
        number of this disk             4 bytes
        number of the disk with the 
        start of the central directory  4 bytes
        total number of entries in the
        central directory on this disk  8 bytes

        central directory               8 bytes
        size of the central directory   8 bytes
        offset of start of central
        directory with respect to
        the starting disk number        8 bytes
        zip64 extensible data sector    (variable size)

      4.3.14.1 The value stored into the "size of zip64 end of central
      directory record" SHOULD be the size of the remaining
      record and SHOULD NOT include the leading 12 bytes.
  
      Size = SizeOfFixedFields + SizeOfVariableData - 12.

      4.3.14.2 The above record structure defines Version 1 of the 
      zip64 end of central directory record. Version 1 was 
      implemented in versions of this specification preceding 
      6.2 in support of the ZIP64 large file feature. The 
      introduction of the Central Directory Encryption feature 
      implemented in version 6.2 as part of the Strong Encryption 
      Specification defines Version 2 of this record structure. 
      Refer to the section describing the Strong Encryption 
      Specification for details on the version 2 format for 
      this record. Refer to the section in this document entitled 
      "Incorporating PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product"
      for more information applicable to use of Version 2 of this
      record.

      4.3.14.3 Special purpose data MAY reside in the zip64 extensible 
      data sector field following either a V1 or V2 version of this
      record.  To ensure identification of this special purpose data
      it MUST include an identifying header block consisting of the
      following:

         Header ID  -  2 bytes
         Data Size  -  4 bytes

      The Header ID field indicates the type of data that is in the 
      data block that follows.

      Data Size identifies the number of bytes that follow for this
      data block type.

      4.3.14.4 Multiple special purpose data blocks MAY be present. 
      Each MUST be preceded by a Header ID and Data Size field.  Current
      mappings of Header ID values supported in this field are as
      defined in APPENDIX C.

4.4  Explanation of fields
--------------------------
      
   4.4.1 General notes on fields

      4.4.1.1  All fields unless otherwise noted are unsigned and stored
      in Intel low-byte:high-byte, low-word:high-word order.

      4.4.1.2  String fields are not null terminated, since the length 
      is given explicitly.

      4.4.1.3  The entries in the central directory MAY NOT necessarily
      be in the same order that files appear in the .ZIP file.

      4.4.1.4  If one of the fields in the end of central directory
      record is too small to hold required data, the field SHOULD be 
      set to -1 (0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF) and the ZIP64 format record 
      SHOULD be created.

      4.4.1.5  The end of central directory record and the Zip64 end 
      of central directory locator record MUST reside on the same 
      disk when splitting or spanning an archive.

   4.4.2 version made by (2 bytes)

        4.4.2.1 The upper byte indicates the compatibility of the file
        attribute information.  If the external file attributes 
        are compatible with MS-DOS and can be read by PKZIP for 
        DOS version 2.04g then this value will be zero.  If these 
        attributes are not compatible, then this value will 
        identify the host system on which the attributes are 
        compatible.  Software can use this information to determine
        the line record format for text files etc.  

        4.4.2.2 The current mappings are:

         0 - MS-DOS and OS/2 (FAT / VFAT / FAT32 file systems)
         1 - Amiga                     2 - OpenVMS
         3 - UNIX                      4 - VM/CMS
         5 - Atari ST                  6 - OS/2 H.P.F.S.
         7 - Macintosh                 8 - Z-System
         9 - CP/M                     10 - Windows NTFS
        11 - MVS (OS/390 - Z/OS)      12 - VSE
        13 - Acorn Risc               14 - VFAT
        15 - alternate MVS            16 - BeOS
        17 - Tandem                   18 - OS/400
        19 - OS X (Darwin)            20 thru 255 - unused

        4.4.2.3 The lower byte indicates the ZIP specification version 
        (the version of this document) supported by the software 
        used to encode the file.  The value/10 indicates the major 
        version number, and the value mod 10 is the minor version 
        number.  

   4.4.3 version needed to extract (2 bytes)

        4.4.3.1 The minimum supported ZIP specification version needed 
        to extract the file, mapped as above.  This value is based on 
        the specific format features a ZIP program MUST support to 
        be able to extract the file.  If multiple features are
        applied to a file, the minimum version MUST be set to the 
        feature having the highest value. New features or feature 
        changes affecting the published format specification will be 
        implemented using higher version numbers than the last 
        published value to avoid conflict.

        4.4.3.2 Current minimum feature versions are as defined below:

         1.0 - Default value
         1.1 - File is a volume label
         2.0 - File is a folder (directory)
         2.0 - File is compressed using Deflate compression
         2.0 - File is encrypted using traditional PKWARE encryption
         2.1 - File is compressed using Deflate64(tm)
         2.5 - File is compressed using PKWARE DCL Implode 
         2.7 - File is a patch data set 
         4.5 - File uses ZIP64 format extensions
         4.6 - File is compressed using BZIP2 compression*
         5.0 - File is encrypted using DES
         5.0 - File is encrypted using 3DES
         5.0 - File is encrypted using original RC2 encryption
         5.0 - File is encrypted using RC4 encryption
         5.1 - File is encrypted using AES encryption
         5.1 - File is encrypted using corrected RC2 encryption**
         5.2 - File is encrypted using corrected RC2-64 encryption**
         6.1 - File is encrypted using non-OAEP key wrapping***
         6.2 - Central directory encryption
         6.3 - File is compressed using LZMA
         6.3 - File is compressed using PPMd+
         6.3 - File is encrypted using Blowfish
         6.3 - File is encrypted using Twofish

        4.4.3.3 Notes on version needed to extract 

        * Early 7.x (pre-7.2) versions of PKZIP incorrectly set the
        version needed to extract for BZIP2 compression to be 50
        when it SHOULD have been 46.

        ** Refer to the section on Strong Encryption Specification
        for additional information regarding RC2 corrections.

        *** Certificate encryption using non-OAEP key wrapping is the
        intended mode of operation for all versions beginning with 6.1.
        Support for OAEP key wrapping MUST only be used for
        backward compatibility when sending ZIP files to be opened by
        versions of PKZIP older than 6.1 (5.0 or 6.0).

        + Files compressed using PPMd MUST set the version
        needed to extract field to 6.3, however, not all ZIP 
        programs enforce this and MAY be unable to decompress 
        data files compressed using PPMd if this value is set.

        When using ZIP64 extensions, the corresponding value in the
        zip64 end of central directory record MUST also be set.  
        This field SHOULD be set appropriately to indicate whether 
        Version 1 or Version 2 format is in use. 


   4.4.4 general purpose bit flag: (2 bytes)

        Bit 0: If set, indicates that the file is encrypted.

        (For Method 6 - Imploding)
        Bit 1: If the compression method used was type 6,
               Imploding, then this bit, if set, indicates
               an 8K sliding dictionary was used.  If clear,
               then a 4K sliding dictionary was used.

        Bit 2: If the compression method used was type 6,
               Imploding, then this bit, if set, indicates
               3 Shannon-Fano trees were used to encode the
               sliding dictionary output.  If clear, then 2
               Shannon-Fano trees were used.

        (For Methods 8 and 9 - Deflating)
        Bit 2  Bit 1
          0      0    Normal (-en) compression option was used.
          0      1    Maximum (-exx/-ex) compression option was used.
          1      0    Fast (-ef) compression option was used.
          1      1    Super Fast (-es) compression option was used.

        (For Method 14 - LZMA)
        Bit 1: If the compression method used was type 14,
               LZMA, then this bit, if set, indicates
               an end-of-stream (EOS) marker is used to
               mark the end of the compressed data stream.
               If clear, then an EOS marker is not present
               and the compressed data size must be known
               to extract.

        Note:  Bits 1 and 2 are undefined if the compression
               method is any other.

        Bit 3: If this bit is set, the fields crc-32, compressed 
               size and uncompressed size are set to zero in the 
               local header.  The correct values are put in the 
               data descriptor immediately following the compressed
               data.  (Note: PKZIP version 2.04g for DOS only 
               recognizes this bit for method 8 compression, newer 
               versions of PKZIP recognize this bit for any 
               compression method.)

        Bit 4: Reserved for use with method 8, for enhanced
               deflating. 

        Bit 5: If this bit is set, this indicates that the file is 
               compressed patched data.  (Note: Requires PKZIP 
               version 2.70 or greater)

        Bit 6: Strong encryption.  If this bit is set, you MUST
               set the version needed to extract value to at least
               50 and you MUST also set bit 0.  If AES encryption
               is used, the version needed to extract value MUST 
               be at least 51. See the section describing the Strong
               Encryption Specification for details.  Refer to the 
               section in this document entitled "Incorporating PKWARE 
               Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for more 
               information.

        Bit 7: Currently unused.

        Bit 8: Currently unused.

        Bit 9: Currently unused.

        Bit 10: Currently unused.

        Bit 11: Language encoding flag (EFS).  If this bit is set,
                the filename and comment fields for this file
                MUST be encoded using UTF-8. (see APPENDIX D)

        Bit 12: Reserved by PKWARE for enhanced compression.

        Bit 13: Set when encrypting the Central Directory to indicate 
                selected data values in the Local Header are masked to
                hide their actual values.  See the section describing 
                the Strong Encryption Specification for details.  Refer
                to the section in this document entitled "Incorporating 
                PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for 
                more information.

        Bit 14: Reserved by PKWARE for alternate streams.

        Bit 15: Reserved by PKWARE.

   4.4.5 compression method: (2 bytes)

        0 - The file is stored (no compression)
        1 - The file is Shrunk
        2 - The file is Reduced with compression factor 1

       97 - WavPack compressed data
       98 - PPMd version I, Rev 1
       99 - AE-x encryption marker (see APPENDIX E)

       4.4.5.1 Methods 1-6 are legacy algorithms and are no longer
       recommended for use when compressing files.

   4.4.6 date and time fields: (2 bytes each)

       The date and time are encoded in standard MS-DOS format.
       If input came from standard input, the date and time are
       those at which compression was started for this data. 
       If encrypting the central directory and general purpose bit 
       flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored in the 
       Local Header will be zero. MS-DOS time format is different
       from more commonly used computer time formats such as 
       UTC. For example, MS-DOS uses year values relative to 1980
       and 2 second precision.

   4.4.7 CRC-32: (4 bytes)

       The CRC-32 algorithm was generously contributed by
       David Schwaderer and can be found in his excellent
       book "C Programmers Guide to NetBIOS" published by
       Howard W. Sams & Co. Inc.  The 'magic number' for
       the CRC is 0xdebb20e3.  The proper CRC pre and post
       conditioning is used, meaning that the CRC register
       is pre-conditioned with all ones (a starting value
       of 0xffffffff) and the value is post-conditioned by
       taking the one's complement of the CRC residual.
       If bit 3 of the general purpose flag is set, this
       field is set to zero in the local header and the correct
       value is put in the data descriptor and in the central
       directory. When encrypting the central directory, if the
       local header is not in ZIP64 format and general purpose 
       bit flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored 
       in the Local Header will be zero. 

   4.4.8 compressed size: (4 bytes)
   4.4.9 uncompressed size: (4 bytes)

       The size of the file compressed (4.4.8) and uncompressed,
       (4.4.9) respectively.  When a decryption header is present it 
       will be placed in front of the file data and the value of the
       compressed file size will include the bytes of the decryption
       header.  If bit 3 of the general purpose bit flag is set, 
       these fields are set to zero in the local header and the 
       correct values are put in the data descriptor and
       in the central directory.  If an archive is in ZIP64 format
       and the value in this field is 0xFFFFFFFF, the size will be
       in the corresponding 8 byte ZIP64 extended information 
       extra field.  When encrypting the central directory, if the
       local header is not in ZIP64 format and general purpose bit 
       flag 13 is set indicating masking, the value stored for the 
       uncompressed size in the Local Header will be zero. 

   4.4.10 file name length: (2 bytes)
   4.4.11 extra field length: (2 bytes)
   4.4.12 file comment length: (2 bytes)

       The length of the file name, extra field, and comment
       fields respectively.  The combined length of any
       directory record and these three fields SHOULD NOT
       generally exceed 65,535 bytes.  If input came from standard
       input, the file name length is set to zero.  


   4.4.13 disk number start: (2 bytes)

       The number of the disk on which this file begins.  If an 
       archive is in ZIP64 format and the value in this field is 
       0xFFFF, the size will be in the corresponding 4 byte zip64 
       extended information extra field.

   4.4.14 internal file attributes: (2 bytes)

       Bits 1 and 2 are reserved for use by PKWARE.

       4.4.14.1 The lowest bit of this field indicates, if set, 
       that the file is apparently an ASCII or text file.  If not
       set, that the file apparently contains binary data.
       The remaining bits are unused in version 1.0.

       4.4.14.2 The 0x0002 bit of this field indicates, if set, that 
       a 4 byte variable record length control field precedes each 
       logical record indicating the length of the record. The 
       record length control field is stored in little-endian byte
       order.  This flag is independent of text control characters, 
       and if used in conjunction with text data, includes any 
       control characters in the total length of the record. This 
       value is provided for mainframe data transfer support.

   4.4.15 external file attributes: (4 bytes)

       The mapping of the external attributes is
       host-system dependent (see 'version made by').  For
       MS-DOS, the low order byte is the MS-DOS directory
       attribute byte.  If input came from standard input, this
       field is set to zero.

   4.4.16 relative offset of local header: (4 bytes)

       This is the offset from the start of the first disk on
       which this file appears, to where the local header SHOULD
       be found.  If an archive is in ZIP64 format and the value
       in this field is 0xFFFFFFFF, the size will be in the 
       corresponding 8 byte zip64 extended information extra field.

   4.4.17 file name: (Variable)

       4.4.17.1 The name of the file, with optional relative path.
       The path stored MUST NOT contain a drive or
       device letter, or a leading slash.  All slashes
       MUST be forward slashes '/' as opposed to
       backwards slashes '\' for compatibility with Amiga
       and UNIX file systems etc.  If input came from standard
       input, there is no file name field.  

       4.4.17.2 If using the Central Directory Encryption Feature and 
       general purpose bit flag 13 is set indicating masking, the file 
       name stored in the Local Header will not be the actual file name.  
       A masking value consisting of a unique hexadecimal value will 
       be stored.  This value will be sequentially incremented for each 
       file in the archive. See the section on the Strong Encryption 
       Specification for details on retrieving the encrypted file name. 
       Refer to the section in this document entitled "Incorporating PKWARE 
       Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for more information.

     Extensible data fields that follows.

4.5 Extensible data fields
--------------------------

   4.5.1 In order to allow different programs and different types
   of information to be stored in the 'extra' field in .ZIP
   files, the following structure MUST be used for all
   programs storing data in this field:

       header1+data1 + header2+data2 . . .

   Each header MUST consist of:

       Header ID - 2 bytes
       Data Size - 2 bytes

   Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order.

   The Header ID field indicates the type of data that is in
   the following data block.

   Header IDs of 0 thru 31 are reserved for use by PKWARE.
   The remaining IDs can be used by third party vendors for
   proprietary usage.

   4.5.2 The current Header ID mappings defined by PKWARE are:

   4.5.3 -Zip64 Extended Information Extra Field (0x0001):

      The following is the layout of the zip64 extended 
      information "extra" block. If one of the size or
      offset fields in the Local or Central directory
      record is too small to hold the required data,
      a Zip64 extended information record is created.
      The order of the fields in the zip64 extended 
      information record is fixed, but the fields MUST
      only appear if the corresponding Local or Central
      directory record field is set to 0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF.

      Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order.

        Value      Size       Description
        -----      ----       -----------

        Number     4 bytes    Number of the disk on which
                              this file starts 

      This entry in the Local header MUST include BOTH original
      and compressed file size fields. If encrypting the 
      central directory and bit 13 of the general purpose bit
      flag is set indicating masking, the value stored in the
      Local Header for the original file size will be zero.


   4.5.4 -OS/2 Extra Field (0x0009):

      The following is the layout of the OS/2 attributes "extra" 
      block.  (Last Revision  09/05/95)

      The OS/2 extended attribute structure (FEA2LIST) is 
      compressed and then stored in its entirety within this 
      structure.  There will only ever be one "block" of data in 
      VarFields[].

   4.5.5 -NTFS Extra Field (0x000a):

      The following is the layout of the NTFS attributes 
      "extra" block. (Note: At this time the Mtime, Atime

         -----      ----       -----------
 (VMS)   0x000c     2 bytes    Tag for this "extra" block type
         TSize      2 bytes    Size of the total "extra" block
         CRC        4 bytes    32-bit CRC for remainder of the block
         Tag1       2 bytes    OpenVMS attribute tag value #1
         Size1      2 bytes    Size of attribute #1, in bytes
         (var)      Size1      Attribute #1 data
         .
         .
         .
         TagN       2 bytes    OpenVMS attribute tag value #N
         SizeN      2 bytes    Size of attribute #N, in bytes
         (var)      SizeN      Attribute #N data

       OpenVMS Extra Field Rules:

          4.5.6.1. There will be one or more attributes present, which 
          will each be preceded by the above TagX & SizeX values.  
          These values are identical to the ATR$C_XXXX and ATR$S_XXXX 
          constants which are defined in ATR.H under OpenVMS C.  Neither 
          of these values will ever be zero.

          4.5.6.2. No word alignment or padding is performed.

          4.5.6.3. A well-behaved PKZIP/OpenVMS program SHOULD NOT produce
          more than one sub-block with the same TagX value.  Also, there MUST 
          NOT be more than one "extra" block of type 0x000c in a particular 
          directory record.

   4.5.7 -UNIX Extra Field (0x000d):

        The following is the layout of the UNIX "extra" block.
        Note: all fields are stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte 
        order.

        Value       Size          Description
        -----       ----          -----------
(UNIX)  0x000d      2 bytes       Tag for this "extra" block type
        TSize       2 bytes       Size for the following data block
        Atime       4 bytes       File last access time
        Mtime       4 bytes       File last modification time
        Uid         2 bytes       File user ID
        Gid         2 bytes       File group ID
        (var)       variable      Variable length data field

        The variable length data field will contain file type 
        specific data.  Currently the only values allowed are
        the original "linked to" file names for hard or symbolic 
        links, and the major and minor device node numbers for
        character and block device nodes.  Since device nodes
        cannot be either symbolic or hard links, only one set of
        variable length data is stored.  Link files will have the
        name of the original file stored.  This name is NOT NULL
        terminated.  Its size can be determined by checking TSize -
        12.  Device entries will have eight bytes stored as two 4
        byte entries (in little endian format).  The first entry
        will be the major device number, and the second the minor
        device number.

        used in encryption processing and it can be used to identify who is
        allowed to decrypt encrypted files.  This field SHOULD only appear 
        in the archive extra data record. This field is not required and 
        serves only to aid archive modifications by preserving public 
        encryption key data. Individual security requirements may dictate 
        that this data be omitted to deter information exposure.

        Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order.

   Detailed descriptions of Extra Fields defined by third 
   party mappings will be documented as information on
   these data structures is made available to PKWARE.  
   PKWARE does not guarantee the accuracy of any published
   third party data.

   4.6.2 Third-party Extra Fields MUST include a Header ID using
   the format defined in the section of this document 
   titled Extensible Data Fields (section 4.5).

   The Data Size field indicates the size of the following
   data block. Programs can use this value to skip to the
   next header block, passing over any data blocks that are
   not of interest.

   Note: As stated above, the size of the entire .ZIP file
         header, including the file name, comment, and extra
         field SHOULD NOT exceed 64K in size.

   4.6.3 In case two different programs appropriate the same
   Header ID value, it is strongly recommended that each
   program SHOULD place a unique signature of at least two bytes in
   size (and preferably 4 bytes or bigger) at the start of
   each data area.  Every program SHOULD verify that its
   unique signature is present, in addition to the Header ID
   value being correct, before assuming that it is a block of
   known type.
         
   Third-party Mappings:
   Not all third-party extra field mappings are documented here.
          
   4.6.4 -ZipIt Macintosh Extra Field (long) (0x2605):

      The following is the layout of the ZipIt extra block 
      for Macintosh. The local-header and central-header versions 
      are identical. This block MUST be present if the file is 
      stored MacBinary-encoded and it SHOULD NOT be used if the file 
      is not stored MacBinary-encoded.

          Value         Size        Description
          -----         ----        -----------
  (Mac2)  0x2605        Short       tag for this extra block type
          TSize         Short       total data size for this block
          "ZPIT"        beLong      extra-field signature
          FnLen         Byte        length of FileName
          FileName      variable    full Macintosh filename
          FileType      Byte[4]     four-byte Mac file type string
          Creator       Byte[4]     four-byte Mac creator string


   4.6.5 -ZipIt Macintosh Extra Field (short, for files) (0x2705):

      The following is the layout of a shortened variant of the
      ZipIt extra block for Macintosh (without "full name" entry).
      This variant is used by ZipIt 1.3.5 and newer for entries of
      files (not directories) that do not have a MacBinary encoded
      file. The local-header and central-header versions are identical.

         Value         Size        Description
         -----         ----        -----------
 (Mac2b) 0x2705        Short       tag for this extra block type
         TSize         Short       total data size for this block (12)
         "ZPIT"        beLong      extra-field signature
         FileType      Byte[4]     four-byte Mac file type string
         Creator       Byte[4]     four-byte Mac creator string
         fdFlags       beShort     attributes from FInfo.frFlags,
                                   MAY be omitted
         0x0000        beShort     reserved, MAY be omitted


   4.6.6 -ZipIt Macintosh Extra Field (short, for directories) (0x2805):

      The following is the layout of a shortened variant of the
      ZipIt extra block for Macintosh used only for directory
      entries. This variant is used by ZipIt 1.3.5 and newer to 
      save some optional Mac-specific information about directories.
      The local-header and central-header versions are identical.

         Value         Size        Description
         -----         ----        -----------
 (Mac2c) 0x2805        Short       tag for this extra block type
         TSize         Short       total data size for this block (12)
         "ZPIT"        beLong      extra-field signature
         frFlags       beShort     attributes from DInfo.frFlags, MAY
                                   be omitted
         View          beShort     ZipIt view flag, MAY be omitted


     The View field specifies ZipIt-internal settings as follows:

     Bits of the Flags:
        bit 0           if set, the folder is shown expanded (open)
                        when the archive contents are viewed in ZipIt.
        bits 1-15       reserved, zero;


   4.6.7 -FWKCS MD5 Extra Field (0x4b46):

      The FWKCS Contents_Signature System, used in
      automatically identifying files independent of file name,
      optionally adds and uses an extra field to support the
      rapid creation of an enhanced contents_signature:

              Header ID = 0x4b46
              Data Size = 0x0013
              Preface   = 'M','D','5'
              followed by 16 bytes containing the uncompressed file's
              128_bit MD5 hash(1), low byte first.

      When FWKCS revises a .ZIP file central directory to add
      this extra field for a file, it also replaces the
      central directory entry for that file's uncompressed
      file length with a measured value.

      FWKCS provides an option to strip this extra field, if
      present, from a .ZIP file central directory. In adding
      this extra field, FWKCS preserves .ZIP file Authenticity
      Verification; if stripping this extra field, FWKCS
      preserves all versions of AV through PKZIP version 2.04g.

      FWKCS, and FWKCS Contents_Signature System, are
      trademarks of Frederick W. Kantor.

   4.6.8 -Info-ZIP Unicode Comment Extra Field (0x6375):

      Stores the UTF-8 version of the file comment as stored in the
      central directory header. (Last Revision 20070912)

         Value         Size        Description
         -----         ----        -----------
  (UCom) 0x6375        Short       tag for this extra block type ("uc")
         TSize         Short       total data size for this block
         Version       1 byte      version of this extra field, currently 1
         ComCRC32      4 bytes     Comment Field CRC32 Checksum
         UnicodeCom    Variable    UTF-8 version of the entry comment

       Currently Version is set to the number 1.  If there is a need
       to change this field, the version will be incremented.  Changes
       MAY NOT be backward compatible so this extra field SHOULD NOT be
       used if the version is not recognized.

       The ComCRC32 is the standard zip CRC32 checksum of the File Comment
       field in the central directory header.  This is used to verify that
       the comment field has not changed since the Unicode Comment extra field
       was created.  This can happen if a utility changes the File Comment 
       field but does not update the UTF-8 Comment extra field.  If the CRC 
       check fails, this Unicode Comment extra field SHOULD be ignored and 
       the File Comment field in the header SHOULD be used instead.

       The UnicodeCom field is the UTF-8 version of the File Comment field
       in the header.  As UnicodeCom is defined to be UTF-8, no UTF-8 byte
       order mark (BOM) is used.  The length of this field is determined by
       subtracting the size of the previous fields from TSize.  If both the
       File Name and Comment fields are UTF-8, the new General Purpose Bit
       Flag, bit 11 (Language encoding flag (EFS)), can be used to indicate
       both the header File Name and Comment fields are UTF-8 and, in this
       case, the Unicode Path and Unicode Comment extra fields are not
       needed and SHOULD NOT be created.  Note that, for backward
       compatibility, bit 11 SHOULD only be used if the native character set
       of the paths and comments being zipped up are already in UTF-8. It is
       expected that the same file comment storage method, either general
       purpose bit 11 or extra fields, be used in both the Local and Central
       Directory Header for a file.


   4.6.9 -Info-ZIP Unicode Path Extra Field (0x7075):

       Stores the UTF-8 version of the file name field as stored in the
       local header and central directory header. (Last Revision 20070912)

         Value         Size        Description
         -----         ----        -----------
 (UPath) 0x7075        Short       tag for this extra block type ("up")
         TSize         Short       total data size for this block
         Version       1 byte      version of this extra field, currently 1
         NameCRC32     4 bytes     File Name Field CRC32 Checksum
         UnicodeName   Variable    UTF-8 version of the entry File Name

      Currently Version is set to the number 1.  If there is a need
      to change this field, the version will be incremented.  Changes
      MAY NOT be backward compatible so this extra field SHOULD NOT be
      used if the version is not recognized.

      The NameCRC32 is the standard zip CRC32 checksum of the File Name
      field in the header.  This is used to verify that the header
      File Name field has not changed since the Unicode Path extra field
      was created.  This can happen if a utility renames the File Name but
      does not update the UTF-8 path extra field.  If the CRC check fails,
      this UTF-8 Path Extra Field SHOULD be ignored and the File Name field
      in the header SHOULD be used instead.

      The UnicodeName is the UTF-8 version of the contents of the File Name
      field in the header.  As UnicodeName is defined to be UTF-8, no UTF-8
      byte order mark (BOM) is used.  The length of this field is determined
      by subtracting the size of the previous fields from TSize.  If both
      the File Name and Comment fields are UTF-8, the new General Purpose
      Bit Flag, bit 11 (Language encoding flag (EFS)), can be used to
      indicate that both the header File Name and Comment fields are UTF-8
      and, in this case, the Unicode Path and Unicode Comment extra fields
      are not needed and SHOULD NOT be created.  Note that, for backward
      compatibility, bit 11 SHOULD only be used if the native character set
      of the paths and comments being zipped up are already in UTF-8. It is
      expected that the same file name storage method, either general
      purpose bit 11 or extra fields, be used in both the Local and Central
      Directory Header for a file.
 

   4.6.10 -Microsoft Open Packaging Growth Hint (0xa220):

          Value         Size        Description
          -----         ----        -----------
          0xa220        Short       tag for this extra block type
          TSize         Short       size of Sig + PadVal + Padding
          Sig           Short       verification signature (A028)
          PadVal        Short       Initial padding value
          Padding       variable    filled with NULL characters

    4.6.11 -Data Stream Alignment (Apache Commons-Compress) (0xa11e):

       (per Zbynek Vyskovsky) Defines alignment of data stream of this 
       entry within the zip archive.  Additionally, indicates whether the 
       compression method should be kept when re-compressing the zip file.

       The purpose of this extra field is to align specific resources to 
       word or page boundaries so they can be easily mapped into memory.  

         Value         Size        Description
         -----         ----        -----------
         0xa11e        Short       tag for this extra block type
         TSize         Short       total data size for this block (2+padding)
         alignment     Short       required alignment and indicator
         0x00          Variable    padding

       The alignment field (lower 15 bits) defines the minimal alignment 
       required by the data stream.   Bit 15 of alignment field indicates 
       whether the compression method of this entry can be changed when 
       recompressing the zip file.  The value 0 means the compression method 
       should not be changed.  The value 1 indicates  the compression method 
       may be changed. The padding field contains padding to ensure the correct 
       alignment.  It can be changed at any time when the offset or required 
       alignment changes. (see https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COMPRESS-391)


4.7 Manifest Files
------------------

    4.7.1 Applications using ZIP files MAY have a need for additional 
    information that MUST be included with the files placed into
    a ZIP file. Application specific information that cannot be
    stored using the defined ZIP storage records SHOULD be stored 
    using the extensible Extra Field convention defined in this 
    document.  However, some applications MAY use a manifest
    file as a means for storing additional information.  One
    example is the META-INF/MANIFEST.MF file used in ZIP formatted
    files having the .JAR extension (JAR files).  

    4.7.2 A manifest file is a file created for the application process
    that requires this information.  A manifest file MAY be of any 
    file type required by the defining application process.  It is 
    placed within the same ZIP file as files to which this information 
    applies. By convention, this file is typically the first file placed
    into the ZIP file and it MAY include a defined directory path.

    4.7.3 Manifest files MAY be compressed or encrypted as needed for
    application processing of the files inside the ZIP files.

    Manifest files are outside of the scope of this specification.


5.0 Explanation of compression methods
--------------------------------------


5.1 UnShrinking - Method 1
--------------------------

    5.1.1 Shrinking is a Dynamic Ziv-Lempel-Welch compression algorithm
    with partial clearing.  The initial code size is 9 bits, and the 
    maximum code size is 13 bits.  Shrinking differs from conventional 
    Dynamic Ziv-Lempel-Welch implementations in several respects:

    5.1.2 The code size is controlled by the compressor, and is 
    not automatically increased when codes larger than the current
    code size are created (but not necessarily used).  When
    the decompressor encounters the code sequence 256
    (decimal) followed by 1, it SHOULD increase the code size
    read from the input stream to the next bit size.  No
    blocking of the codes is performed, so the next code at
    the increased size SHOULD be read from the input stream
    immediately after where the previous code at the smaller
    bit size was read.  Again, the decompressor SHOULD NOT
    increase the code size used until the sequence 256,1 is
    encountered.

    5.1.3 When the table becomes full, total clearing is not
    performed.  Rather, when the compressor emits the code
    sequence 256,2 (decimal), the decompressor SHOULD clear
    all leaf nodes from the Ziv-Lempel tree, and continue to
    use the current code size.  The nodes that are cleared
    from the Ziv-Lempel tree are then re-used, with the lowest
    code value re-used first, and the highest code value
    re-used last.  The compressor can emit the sequence 256,2
    at any time.

5.2 Expanding - Methods 2-5
---------------------------

    5.2.1 The Reducing algorithm is actually a combination of two
    distinct algorithms.  The first algorithm compresses repeated
    byte sequences, and the second algorithm takes the compressed
    stream from the first algorithm and applies a probabilistic
    compression method.

    5.2.2 The probabilistic compression stores an array of 'follower
    sets' S(j), for j=0 to 255, corresponding to each possible
    ASCII character.  Each set contains between 0 and 32
    characters, to be denoted as S(j)[0],...,S(j)[m], where m<32.
    The sets are stored at the beginning of the data area for a
    Reduced file, in reverse order, with S(255) first, and S(0)
    last.

    5.2.3 The sets are encoded as { N(j), S(j)[0],...,S(j)[N(j)-1] },
    where N(j) is the size of set S(j).  N(j) can be 0, in which
    case the follower set for S(j) is empty.  Each N(j) value is
    encoded in 6 bits, followed by N(j) eight bit character values
    corresponding to S(j)[0] to S(j)[N(j)-1] respectively.  If
    N(j) is 0, then no values for S(j) are stored, and the value
    for N(j-1) immediately follows.

    5.2.4 Immediately after the follower sets, is the compressed data
    stream.  The compressed data stream can be interpreted for the
    probabilistic decompression as follows:

    let Last-Character <- 0.
    loop until done
        if the follower set S(Last-Character) is empty then
            read 8 bits from the input stream, and copy this
            value to the output stream.
        otherwise if the follower set S(Last-Character) is non-empty then
            read 1 bit from the input stream.
            if this bit is not zero then
                read 8 bits from the input stream, and copy this
                value to the output stream.
            otherwise if this bit is zero then
                read B(N(Last-Character)) bits from the input
                stream, and assign this value to I.
                Copy the value of S(Last-Character)[I] to the
                output stream.

        assign the last value placed on the output stream to
        Last-Character.
    end loop

    B(N(j)) is defined as the minimal number of bits required to
    encode the value N(j)-1.

    5.2.5 The decompressed stream from above can then be expanded to
    re-create the original file as follows:

    let State <- 0.

    loop until done
        read 8 bits from the input stream into C.
        case State of
            0:  if C is not equal to DLE (144 decimal) then
                   copy C to the output stream.
                 otherwise if C is equal to DLE then
                   let State <- 1.

            1:  if C is non-zero then
                   let V <- C.
                   let Len <- L(V)
                   let State <- F(Len).
                 otherwise if C is zero then
                   copy the value 144 (decimal) to the output stream.
                   let State <- 0

            2:  let Len <- Len + C
                    let State <- 3.

            3:  move backwards D(V,C) bytes in the output stream
                    (if this position is before the start of the output
                    stream, then assume that all the data before the
                    start of the output stream is filled with zeros).
                    copy Len+3 bytes from this position to the output stream.
                    let State <- 0.
          end case
    end loop

    The functions F,L, and D are dependent on the 'compression
    factor', 1 through 4, and are defined as follows:

    For compression factor 1:
        L(X) equals the lower 7 bits of X.
        F(X) equals 2 if X equals 127 otherwise F(X) equals 3.
        D(X,Y) equals the (upper 1 bit of X) * 256 + Y + 1.
    For compression factor 2:
        L(X) equals the lower 6 bits of X.
        F(X) equals 2 if X equals 63 otherwise F(X) equals 3.
        D(X,Y) equals the (upper 2 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1.
    For compression factor 3:
        L(X) equals the lower 5 bits of X.
        F(X) equals 2 if X equals 31 otherwise F(X) equals 3.
        D(X,Y) equals the (upper 3 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1.
    For compression factor 4:
        L(X) equals the lower 4 bits of X.
        F(X) equals 2 if X equals 15 otherwise F(X) equals 3.
        D(X,Y) equals the (upper 4 bits of X) * 256 + Y + 1.

5.3 Imploding - Method 6
------------------------

    5.3.1 The Imploding algorithm is actually a combination of two 
    distinct algorithms.  The first algorithm compresses repeated byte
    sequences using a sliding dictionary.  The second algorithm is
    used to compress the encoding of the sliding dictionary output,
    using multiple Shannon-Fano trees.

    5.3.2 The Imploding algorithm can use a 4K or 8K sliding dictionary
    size. The dictionary size used can be determined by bit 1 in the
    general purpose flag word; a 0 bit indicates a 4K dictionary
    while a 1 bit indicates an 8K dictionary.

    5.3.3 The Shannon-Fano trees are stored at the start of the 
    compressed file. The number of trees stored is defined by bit 2 in 
    the general purpose flag word; a 0 bit indicates two trees stored, 
    a 1 bit indicates three trees are stored.  If 3 trees are stored,
    the first Shannon-Fano tree represents the encoding of the
    Literal characters, the second tree represents the encoding of
    the Length information, the third represents the encoding of the
    Distance information.  When 2 Shannon-Fano trees are stored, the
    Length tree is stored first, followed by the Distance tree.

    5.3.4 The Literal Shannon-Fano tree, if present is used to represent
    the entire ASCII character set, and contains 256 values.  This
    tree is used to compress any data not compressed by the sliding
    dictionary algorithm.  When this tree is present, the Minimum
    Match Length for the sliding dictionary is 3.  If this tree is
    not present, the Minimum Match Length is 2.

    5.3.5 The Length Shannon-Fano tree is used to compress the Length 
    part of the (length,distance) pairs from the sliding dictionary
    output.  The Length tree contains 64 values, ranging from the
    Minimum Match Length, to 63 plus the Minimum Match Length.

    5.3.6 The Distance Shannon-Fano tree is used to compress the Distance
    part of the (length,distance) pairs from the sliding dictionary
    output. The Distance tree contains 64 values, ranging from 0 to
    63, representing the upper 6 bits of the distance value.  The
    distance values themselves will be between 0 and the sliding
    dictionary size, either 4K or 8K.

    5.3.7 The Shannon-Fano trees themselves are stored in a compressed
    format. The first byte of the tree data represents the number of
    bytes of data representing the (compressed) Shannon-Fano tree
    minus 1.  The remaining bytes represent the Shannon-Fano tree
    data encoded as:

        High 4 bits: Number of values at this bit length + 1. (1 - 16)
        Low  4 bits: Bit Length needed to represent value + 1. (1 - 16)

    5.3.8 The Shannon-Fano codes can be constructed from the bit lengths
    using the following algorithm:

    1)  Sort the Bit Lengths in ascending order, while retaining the
        order of the original lengths stored in the file.

    2)  Generate the Shannon-Fano trees:

        Code <- 0
        CodeIncrement <- 0
        LastBitLength <- 0
        i <- number of Shannon-Fano codes - 1   (either 255 or 63)

        loop while i >= 0
            Code = Code + CodeIncrement
            if BitLength(i) <> LastBitLength then
                LastBitLength=BitLength(i)
                CodeIncrement = 1 shifted left (16 - LastBitLength)
            ShannonCode(i) = Code
            i <- i - 1
        end loop

    3)  Reverse the order of all the bits in the above ShannonCode()
        vector, so that the most significant bit becomes the least
        significant bit.  For example, the value 0x1234 (hex) would
        become 0x2C48 (hex).

    4)  Restore the order of Shannon-Fano codes as originally stored
        within the file.

    Example:

        This example will show the encoding of a Shannon-Fano tree
        of size 8.  Notice that the actual Shannon-Fano trees used
        for Imploding are either 64 or 256 entries in size.

    Example:   0x02, 0x42, 0x01, 0x13

        The first byte indicates 3 values in this table.  Decoding the
        bytes:
                0x42 = 5 codes of 3 bits long
                0x01 = 1 code  of 2 bits long
                0x13 = 2 codes of 4 bits long

        This would generate the original bit length array of:
        (3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 2, 4, 4)

        There are 8 codes in this table for the values 0 thru 7.  Using 
        the algorithm to obtain the Shannon-Fano codes produces:

                                      Reversed     Order     Original
    Val  Sorted   Constructed Code      Value     Restored    Length
    ---  ------   -----------------   --------    --------    ------
    0:     2      1100000000000000        11       101          3
    1:     3      1010000000000000       101       001          3
    2:     3      1000000000000000       001       110          3
    3:     3      0110000000000000       110       010          3
    4:     3      0100000000000000       010       100          3
    5:     3      0010000000000000       100        11          2
    6:     4      0001000000000000      1000      1000          4
    7:     4      0000000000000000      0000      0000          4

    The values in the Val, Order Restored and Original Length columns
    now represent the Shannon-Fano encoding tree that can be used for
    decoding the Shannon-Fano encoded data.  How to parse the
    variable length Shannon-Fano values from the data stream is beyond
    the scope of this document.  (See the references listed at the end of
    this document for more information.)  However, traditional decoding
    schemes used for Huffman variable length decoding, such as the
    Greenlaw algorithm, can be successfully applied.

    5.3.9 The compressed data stream begins immediately after the
    compressed Shannon-Fano data.  The compressed data stream can be
    interpreted as follows:

    loop until done
        read 1 bit from input stream.

        if this bit is non-zero then       (encoded data is literal data)
            if Literal Shannon-Fano tree is present
                read and decode character using Literal Shannon-Fano tree.
            otherwise
                read 8 bits from input stream.
            copy character to the output stream.
        otherwise              (encoded data is sliding dictionary match)
            if 8K dictionary size
                read 7 bits for offset Distance (lower 7 bits of offset).
            otherwise
                read 6 bits for offset Distance (lower 6 bits of offset).

            using the Distance Shannon-Fano tree, read and decode the
              upper 6 bits of the Distance value.

            using the Length Shannon-Fano tree, read and decode
              the Length value.

            Length <- Length + Minimum Match Length

            if Length = 63 + Minimum Match Length
                read 8 bits from the input stream,
                add this value to Length.

            move backwards Distance+1 bytes in the output stream, and
            copy Length characters from this position to the output
            stream.  (if this position is before the start of the output
            stream, then assume that all the data before the start of
            the output stream is filled with zeros).
    end loop

5.4 Tokenizing - Method 7
-------------------------

    5.4.1 This method is not used by PKZIP.

5.5 Deflating - Method 8
------------------------

    5.5.1 The Deflate algorithm is similar to the Implode algorithm using
    a sliding dictionary of up to 32K with secondary compression
    from Huffman/Shannon-Fano codes.

    5.5.2 The compressed data is stored in blocks with a header describing
    the block and the Huffman codes used in the data block.  The header
    format is as follows:

       Bit 0: Last Block bit     This bit is set to 1 if this is the last
                                 compressed block in the data.
       Bits 1-2: Block type
          00 (0) - Block is stored - All stored data is byte aligned.
                   Skip bits until next byte, then next word = block 
                   length, followed by the ones compliment of the block
                   length word. Remaining data in block is the stored 
                   data.

          01 (1) - Use fixed Huffman codes for literal and distance codes.
                   Lit Code    Bits             Dist Code   Bits
                   ---------   ----             ---------   ----
                     0 - 143    8                 0 - 31      5
                   144 - 255    9
                   256 - 279    7
                   280 - 287    8

                   Literal codes 286-287 and distance codes 30-31 are 
                   never used but participate in the huffman construction.

          10 (2) - Dynamic Huffman codes.  (See expanding Huffman codes)

          11 (3) - Reserved - Flag a "Error in compressed data" if seen.

    5.5.3 Expanding Huffman Codes
    
    If the data block is stored with dynamic Huffman codes, the Huffman
    codes are sent in the following compressed format:

       5 Bits: # of Literal codes sent - 256 (256 - 286)
               All other codes are never sent.
       5 Bits: # of Dist codes - 1           (1 - 32)
       4 Bits: # of Bit Length codes - 3     (3 - 19)

    The Huffman codes are sent as bit lengths and the codes are built as
    described in the implode algorithm.  The bit lengths themselves are
    compressed with Huffman codes.  There are 19 bit length codes:

       0 - 15: Represent bit lengths of 0 - 15
           16: Copy the previous bit length 3 - 6 times.
               The next 2 bits indicate repeat length (0 = 3, ... ,3 = 6)
                  Example:  Codes 8, 16 (+2 bits 11), 16 (+2 bits 10) will
                            expand to 12 bit lengths of 8 (1 + 6 + 5)
           17: Repeat a bit length of 0 for 3 - 10 times. (3 bits of length)
           18: Repeat a bit length of 0 for 11 - 138 times (7 bits of length)

    The lengths of the bit length codes are sent packed 3 bits per value
    (0 - 7) in the following order:

       16, 17, 18, 0, 8, 7, 9, 6, 10, 5, 11, 4, 12, 3, 13, 2, 14, 1, 15

    The Huffman codes SHOULD be built as described in the Implode algorithm
    except codes are assigned starting at the shortest bit length, i.e. the
    shortest code SHOULD be all 0's rather than all 1's.  Also, codes with
    a bit length of zero do not participate in the tree construction.  The
    codes are then used to decode the bit lengths for the literal and 
    distance tables.

    The bit lengths for the literal tables are sent first with the number
    of entries sent described by the 5 bits sent earlier.  There are up
    to 286 literal characters; the first 256 represent the respective 8
    bit character, code 256 represents the End-Of-Block code, the remaining
    29 codes represent copy lengths of 3 thru 258.  There are up to 30
    distance codes representing distances from 1 thru 32k as described
    below.

                                 Length Codes

    5.5.4 The compressed data stream begins immediately after the
    compressed header data.  The compressed data stream can be
    interpreted as follows:

    do
       read header from input stream.

       if stored block
          skip bits until byte aligned
          read count and 1's compliment of count
          copy count bytes data block
       otherwise
          loop until end of block code sent
             decode literal character from input stream
             if literal < 256
                copy character to the output stream
             otherwise
                if literal = end of block
                   break from loop
                otherwise
                   decode distance from input stream

                   move backwards distance bytes in the output stream, and
                   copy length characters from this position to the output
                   stream.
          end loop
    while not last block

    if data descriptor exists
       skip bits until byte aligned
       read crc and sizes
    endif

5.6 Enhanced Deflating - Method 9
---------------------------------

    5.6.1 The Enhanced Deflating algorithm is similar to Deflate but uses 
    a sliding dictionary of up to 64K. Deflate64(tm) is supported
    by the Deflate extractor. 

5.7 BZIP2 - Method 12
---------------------

    5.7.1 BZIP2 is an open-source data compression algorithm developed by 
    Julian Seward.  Information and source code for this algorithm
    can be found on the internet.

5.8 LZMA - Method 14 
---------------------

    5.8.1 LZMA is a block-oriented, general purpose data compression 
    algorithm developed and maintained by Igor Pavlov.  It is a derivative 
    of LZ77 that utilizes Markov chains and a range coder.  Information and 
    source code for this algorithm can be found on the internet.  Consult 
    with the author of this algorithm for information on terms or 
    restrictions on use.

    Support for LZMA within the ZIP format is defined as follows:   

    5.8.2 The Compression method field within the ZIP Local and Central 
    Header records will be set to the value 14 to indicate data was
    compressed using LZMA. 

    5.8.3 The Version needed to extract field within the ZIP Local and 
    Central Header records will be set to 6.3 to indicate the minimum 
    ZIP format version supporting this feature.

    5.8.4 File data compressed using the LZMA algorithm MUST be placed 
    immediately following the Local Header for the file.  If a standard 
    ZIP encryption header is required, it will follow the Local Header 
    and will precede the LZMA compressed file data segment.  The location 
    of LZMA compressed data segment within the ZIP format will be as shown:

        [local header file 1]
        [encryption header file 1]
        [LZMA compressed data segment for file 1]
        [data descriptor 1]
        [local header file 2]

    5.8.5 The encryption header and data descriptor records MAY
    be conditionally present.  The LZMA Compressed Data Segment 
    will consist of an LZMA Properties Header followed by the 
    LZMA Compressed Data as shown:

        [LZMA properties header for file 1]
        [LZMA compressed data for file 1]

    5.8.6 The LZMA Compressed Data will be stored as provided by the 
    LZMA compression library.  Compressed size, uncompressed size and 
    other file characteristics about the file being compressed MUST be 
    stored in standard ZIP storage format.

    5.8.7 The LZMA Properties Header will store specific data required 
    to decompress the LZMA compressed Data.  This data is set by the 
    LZMA compression engine using the function WriteCoderProperties() 
    as documented within the LZMA SDK. 
         
    5.8.8 Storage fields for the property information within the LZMA 
    Properties Header are as follows:

         LZMA Version Information 2 bytes
         LZMA Properties Size 2 bytes
         LZMA Properties Data variable, defined by "LZMA Properties Size"

       5.8.8.1 LZMA Version Information - this field identifies which version 
       of the LZMA SDK was used to compress a file.  The first byte will 
       store the major version number of the LZMA SDK and the second 
       byte will store the minor number.  

       5.8.8.2 LZMA Properties Size - this field defines the size of the 
       remaining property data.  Typically this size SHOULD be determined by 
       the version of the SDK.  This size field is included as a convenience
       and to help avoid any ambiguity arising in the future due
       to changes in this compression algorithm. 

       5.8.8.3 LZMA Property Data - this variable sized field records the 
       required values for the decompressor as defined by the LZMA SDK.  
       The data stored in this field SHOULD be obtained using the 
       WriteCoderProperties() in the version of the SDK defined by 
       the "LZMA Version Information" field.  

       5.8.8.4 The layout of the "LZMA Properties Data" field is a function of 
       the LZMA compression algorithm.  It is possible that this layout MAY be
       changed by the author over time.  The data layout in version 4.3 of the 
       LZMA SDK defines a 5 byte array that uses 4 bytes to store the dictionary 
       size in little-endian order. This is preceded by a single packed byte as 
       the first element of the array that contains the following fields:

         PosStateBits
         LiteralPosStateBits
         LiteralContextBits

       Refer to the LZMA documentation for a more detailed explanation of 
       these fields.  

    5.8.9 Data compressed with method 14, LZMA, MAY include an end-of-stream
    (EOS) marker ending the compressed data stream.  This marker is not
    required, but its use is highly recommended to facilitate processing
    and implementers SHOULD include the EOS marker whenever possible.
    When the EOS marker is used, general purpose bit 1 MUSY be set.  If
    general purpose bit 1 is not set, the EOS marker is not present.

5.9 WavPack - Method 97
-----------------------

    5.9.1 Information describing the use of compression method 97 is 
    provided by WinZIP International, LLC.  This method relies on the
    open source WavPack audio compression utility developed by David Bryant.  
    Information on WavPack is available at www.wavpack.com.  Please consult 
    with the author of this algorithm for information on terms and 
    restrictions on use.

    5.9.2 WavPack data for a file begins immediately after the end of the
    local header data.  This data is the output from WavPack compression
    routines.  Within the ZIP file, the use of WavPack compression is
    indicated by setting the compression method field to a value of 97 
    in both the local header and the central directory header.  The Version 
    needed to extract and version made by fields use the same values as are 
    used for data compressed using the Deflate algorithm.

    5.9.3 An implementation note for storing digital sample data when using 
    WavPack compression within ZIP files is that all of the bytes of
    the sample data SHOULD be compressed.  This includes any unused
    bits up to the byte boundary.  An example is a 2 byte sample that
    uses only 12 bits for the sample data with 4 unused bits.  If only
    12 bits are passed as the sample size to the WavPack routines, the 4 
    unused bits will be set to 0 on extraction regardless of their original 
    state.  To avoid this, the full 16 bits of the sample data size
    SHOULD be provided. 

5.10 PPMd - Method 98
---------------------

    5.10.1 PPMd is a data compression algorithm developed by Dmitry Shkarin
    which includes a carryless rangecoder developed by Dmitry Subbotin.
    This algorithm is based on predictive phrase matching on multiple
    order contexts.  Information and source code for this algorithm
    can be found on the internet. Consult with the author of this
    algorithm for information on terms or restrictions on use.

    5.10.2 Support for PPMd within the ZIP format currently is provided only 
    for version I, revision 1 of the algorithm.  Storage requirements
    for using this algorithm are as follows:

    5.10.3 Parameters needed to control the algorithm are stored in the two
    bytes immediately preceding the compressed data.  These bytes are
    used to store the following fields:

    Model order - sets the maximum model order, default is 8, possible
                  values are from 2 to 16 inclusive

    Sub-allocator size - sets the size of sub-allocator in MB, default is 50,
                    possible values are from 1MB to 256MB inclusive

    Model restoration method - sets the method used to restart context
                    model at memory insufficiency, values are:

                    0 - restarts model from scratch - default
                    1 - cut off model - decreases performance by as much as 2x
                    2 - freeze context tree - not recommended

    5.10.4 An example for packing these fields into the 2 byte storage field is
    illustrated below.  These values are stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte
    order.

    wPPMd = (Model order - 1) + 
            ((Sub-allocator size - 1) << 4) + 
            (Model restoration method << 12)

5.17 IBM z/OS CMPSC Compression - Method 16
-------------------------------------------

Method 16 utilizes the IBM hardware compression facility available
on most IBM mainframes.  Hardware compression can significantly 
increase the speed of data compression.  This method uses a variant 
of the LZ78 algorithm.  CMPSC hardware compression is performed
using the COMPRESSION CALL instruction.  

ZIP archives can be created using this method only on mainframes
supporting the CP instruction.  Extraction MAY occur on any
platform supporting this compression algorithm.  Use of this 
algorithm requires creation of a compression dictionary and
an expansion dictionary.  The expansion dictionary MUST be
placed into the ZIP archive for use on the system where
extraction will occur.

Additional information on this compression algorithm and dictionaries
can be found in the IBM provided document titled IBM ESA/390 Data 
Compression (SA22-7208-01). Storage requirements for using CMPSC 
compression are as follows.

The format for the compressed data stream placed into the ZIP
archive following the Local Header is:

    [dictionary header]
    [expansion dictionary]
    [CMPSC compressed data] 

If encryption is used to encrypt a file compressed with CMPSC, these 
sections MUST be encrypted as a single entity.

The format of the dictionary header is:

          Value            Size          Description
          -----            ----          -----------
          Version          1 byte        1
          Flags/Symsize    1 byte        Processing flags and
                                         symbol size
          DictionaryLen    4 bytes       Length of the 
                                         expansion dictionary

Explanation of processing flags and symbol size:

The high 4 bits are used to store the processing flags.  The low
4 bits represent the size of a symbol, in bits (values range
from 9-13).  Flag values are defined below.

    0x80 - expansion dictionary
    0x40 - expansion dictionary is compressed using Deflate
    0x20 - Reserved
    0x10 - Reserved

6.0  Traditional PKWARE Encryption
----------------------------------

    6.0.1 The following information discusses the decryption steps
    required to support traditional PKWARE encryption.  This
    form of encryption is considered weak by today's standards
    and its use is recommended only for situations with
    low security needs or for compatibility with older .ZIP 
    applications.

6.1 Traditional PKWARE Decryption
---------------------------------

    6.1.1 PKWARE is grateful to Mr. Roger Schlafly for his expert 
    contribution towards the development of PKWARE's traditional 
    encryption.

    6.1.2 PKZIP encrypts the compressed data stream.  Encrypted files 
    MUST be decrypted before they can be extracted to their original
    form.

    6.1.3 Each encrypted file has an extra 12 bytes stored at the start 
    of the data area defining the encryption header for that file.  The
    encryption header is originally set to random values, and then
    itself encrypted, using three, 32-bit keys.  The key values are
    initialized using the supplied encryption password.  After each byte
    is encrypted, the keys are then updated using pseudo-random number
    generation techniques in combination with the same CRC-32 algorithm
    used in PKZIP and described elsewhere in this document.

    6.1.4 The following are the basic steps required to decrypt a file:

    1) Initialize the three 32-bit keys with the password.
    2) Read and decrypt the 12-byte encryption header, further
       initializing the encryption keys.
    3) Read and decrypt the compressed data stream using the
       encryption keys.

    6.1.5 Initializing the encryption keys
        
    Key(0) <- 305419896
    Key(1) <- 591751049
    Key(2) <- 878082192

    loop for i <- 0 to length(password)-1
        update_keys(password(i))
    end loop

    Where update_keys() is defined as:

    update_keys(char):
      Key(0) <- crc32(key(0),char)
      Key(1) <- Key(1) + (Key(0) & 000000ffH)
      Key(1) <- Key(1) * 134775813 + 1
      Key(2) <- crc32(key(2),key(1) >> 24)
    end update_keys

    Where crc32(old_crc,char) is a routine that given a CRC value and a
    character, returns an updated CRC value after applying the CRC-32
    algorithm described elsewhere in this document.

    6.1.6 Decrypting the encryption header
        
    The purpose of this step is to further initialize the encryption
    keys, based on random data, to render a plaintext attack on the
    data ineffective.

    Read the 12-byte encryption header into Buffer, in locations
    Buffer(0) thru Buffer(11).

    loop for i <- 0 to 11
        C <- buffer(i) ^ decrypt_byte()
        update_keys(C)
        buffer(i) <- C
    end loop

    Where decrypt_byte() is defined as:

    unsigned char decrypt_byte()
        local unsigned short temp
        temp <- Key(2) | 2
        decrypt_byte <- (temp * (temp ^ 1)) >> 8
    end decrypt_byte

    After the header is decrypted,  the last 1 or 2 bytes in Buffer
    SHOULD be the high-order word/byte of the CRC for the file being
    decrypted, stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order.  Versions of
    PKZIP prior to 2.0 used a 2 byte CRC check; a 1 byte CRC check is
    used on versions after 2.0.  This can be used to test if the password
    supplied is correct or not.

    6.1.7 Decrypting the compressed data stream
    
    The compressed data stream can be decrypted as follows:

    loop until done
        read a character into C
        Temp <- C ^ decrypt_byte()
        update_keys(temp)
        output Temp
    end loop


7.0 Strong Encryption Specification
-----------------------------------

   7.0.1 Portions of the Strong Encryption technology defined in this 
   specification are covered under patents and pending patent applications.
   Refer to the section in this document entitled "Incorporating 
   PKWARE Proprietary Technology into Your Product" for more information.

7.1 Strong Encryption Overview
------------------------------

   7.1.1 Version 5.x of this specification introduced support for strong 
   encryption algorithms.  These algorithms can be used with either 
   a password or an X.509v3 digital certificate to encrypt each file. 
   This format specification supports either password or certificate 
   based encryption to meet the security needs of today, to enable 
   interoperability between users within both PKI and non-PKI 
   environments, and to ensure interoperability between different 
   computing platforms that are running a ZIP program.  

   7.1.2 Password based encryption is the most common form of encryption 
   people are familiar with.  However, inherent weaknesses with 
   passwords (e.g. susceptibility to dictionary/brute force attack) 
   as well as password management and support issues make certificate 
   based encryption a more secure and scalable option.  Industry 
   efforts and support are defining and moving towards more advanced 
   security solutions built around X.509v3 digital certificates and 
   Public Key Infrastructures(PKI) because of the greater scalability, 
   administrative options, and more robust security over traditional 
   password based encryption. 

   7.1.3 Most standard encryption algorithms are supported with this
   specification. Reference implementations for many of these 
   algorithms are available from either commercial or open source 
   distributors.  Readily available cryptographic toolkits make
   implementation of the encryption features straight-forward.  
   This document is not intended to provide a treatise on data 
   encryption principles or theory.  Its purpose is to document the 
   data structures required for implementing interoperable data 
   encryption within the .ZIP format.  It is strongly recommended that 
   you have a good understanding of data encryption before reading 
   further.

   7.1.4 The algorithms introduced in Version 5.0 of this specification 
   include:

      RC2 40 bit, 64 bit, and 128 bit
      RC4 40 bit, 64 bit, and 128 bit
      DES
      3DES 112 bit and 168 bit
  
   Version 5.1 adds support for the following:

      AES 128 bit, 192 bit, and 256 bit


   7.1.5 Version 6.1 introduces encryption data changes to support 
   interoperability with Smartcard and USB Token certificate storage 
   methods which do not support the OAEP strengthening standard.

   7.1.6 Version 6.2 introduces support for encrypting metadata by compressing 
   and encrypting the central directory data structure to reduce information 
   leakage.   Information leakage can occur in legacy ZIP applications 
   through exposure of information about a file even though that file is 
   stored encrypted.  The information exposed consists of file 
   characteristics stored within the records and fields defined by this 
   specification.  This includes data such as a file's name, its original 
   size, timestamp and CRC32 value. 

   7.1.7 Version 6.3 introduces support for encrypting data using the Blowfish
   and Twofish algorithms.  These are symmetric block ciphers developed 
   by Bruce Schneier.  Blowfish supports using a variable length key from 
   32 to 448 bits.  Block size is 64 bits.  Implementations SHOULD use 16
   rounds and the only mode supported within ZIP files is CBC. Twofish 
   supports key sizes 128, 192 and 256 bits.  Block size is 128 bits.  
   Implementations SHOULD use 16 rounds and the only mode supported within
   ZIP files is CBC.  Information and source code for both Blowfish and 
   Twofish algorithms can be found on the internet.  Consult with the author
   of these algorithms for information on terms or restrictions on use.

   7.1.8 Central Directory Encryption provides greater protection against 
   information leakage by encrypting the Central Directory structure and 
   by masking key values that are replicated in the unencrypted Local 
   Header.   ZIP compatible programs that cannot interpret an encrypted 
   Central Directory structure cannot rely on the data in the corresponding 
   Local Header for decompression information.  

   7.1.9 Extra Field records that MAY contain information about a file that SHOULD 
   not be exposed SHOULD NOT be stored in the Local Header and SHOULD only 
   be written to the Central Directory where they can be encrypted.  This 
   design currently does not support streaming.  Information in the End of 
   Central Directory record, the Zip64 End of Central Directory Locator, 
   and the Zip64 End of Central Directory records are not encrypted.  Access 
   to view data on files within a ZIP file with an encrypted Central Directory
   requires the appropriate password or private key for decryption prior to 
   viewing any files, or any information about the files, in the archive.  

   7.1.10 Older ZIP compatible programs not familiar with the Central Directory 
   Encryption feature will no longer be able to recognize the Central 
   Directory and MAY assume the ZIP file is corrupt.  Programs that 
   attempt streaming access using Local Headers will see invalid 
   information for each file.  Central Directory Encryption need not be 
   used for every ZIP file.  Its use is recommended for greater security.  
   ZIP files not using Central Directory Encryption SHOULD operate as 
   in the past. 

   7.1.11 This strong encryption feature specification is intended to provide for 
   scalable, cross-platform encryption needs ranging from simple password
   encryption to authenticated public/private key encryption.  

   7.1.12 Encryption provides data confidentiality and privacy.  It is 
   recommended that you combine X.509 digital signing with encryption 
   to add authentication and non-repudiation.


7.2 Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method
-----------------------------------------------

   7.2.1 The Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method using strong    
   encryption algorithms operates similarly to the traditional 
   PKWARE encryption defined in this format.  Additional data 
   structures are added to support the processing needs of the 
   strong algorithms.

   The Strong Encryption data structures are:

   7.2.2 General Purpose Bits - Bits 0 and 6 of the General Purpose bit 
   flag in both local and central header records.  Both bits set 
   indicates strong encryption.  Bit 13, when set indicates the Central
   Directory is encrypted and that selected fields in the Local Header
   are masked to hide their actual value.


    7.2.3 Extra Field 0x0017 in central header only.

    Fields to consider in this record are:

       7.2.3.1 Format - the data format identifier for this record.  The only
       value allowed at this time is the integer value 2.

       7.2.3.2 AlgId - integer identifier of the encryption algorithm from the
       following range

                  VCRC32    4 bytes  Standard ZIP CRC32 of password validation data

       7.2.4.1 IVData - The size of the IV SHOULD match the algorithm block size.
       The IVData can be completely random data.  If the size of
       the randomly generated data does not match the block size
       it SHOULD be complemented with zero's or truncated as
       necessary.  If IVSize is 0,then IV = CRC32 + Uncompressed
       File Size (as a 64 bit little-endian, unsigned integer value).

       7.2.4.2 Format - the data format identifier for this record.  The only
       value allowed at this time is the integer value 3.

       7.2.4.3 AlgId - integer identifier of the encryption algorithm from the
       following range

                     0x6601 - DES
                     0x6602 - RC2 (version needed to extract < 5.2)

                     32 - 448 bits
               
        7.2.4.5 Flags - Processing flags needed for decryption

                     0x0001 - Password is required to decrypt
                     0x0002 - Certificates only
                     0x0003 - Password or certificate required to decrypt

                     Values > 0x0003 reserved for certificate processing

        7.2.4.6 ErdData - Encrypted random data is used to store random data that
        is used to generate a file session key for encrypting 
        each file.  SHA1 is used to calculate hash data used to 
        derive keys.  File session keys are derived from a master 
        session key generated from the user-supplied password.
        If the Flags field in the decryption header contains 
        the value 0x4000, then the ErdData field MUST be 
        decrypted using 3DES. If the value 0x4000 is not set,
        then the ErdData field MUST be decrypted using AlgId.


        7.2.4.7 Reserved1 - Reserved for certificate processing, if value is
        zero, then Reserved2 data is absent.  See the explanation
        under the Certificate Processing Method for details on
        this data structure.

        7.2.4.8 Reserved2 - If present, the size of the Reserved2 data structure 
        is located by skipping the first 4 bytes of this field 
        and using the next 2 bytes as the remaining size.  See
        the explanation under the Certificate Processing Method
        for details on this data structure.

        7.2.4.9 VSize - This size value will always include the 4 bytes of the
        VCRC32 data and will be greater than 4 bytes.

        7.2.4.10 VData - Random data for password validation.  This data is VSize
        in length and VSize MUST be a multiple of the encryption
        block size.  VCRC32 is a checksum value of VData.  
        VData and VCRC32 are stored encrypted and start the
        stream of encrypted data for a file.


    7.2.5 Useful Tips

        7.2.5.1 Strong Encryption is always applied to a file after compression. The
        block oriented algorithms all operate in Cypher Block Chaining (CBC) 
        mode.  The block size used for AES encryption is 16.  All other block
        algorithms use a block size of 8.  Two IDs are defined for RC2 to 
        account for a discrepancy found in the implementation of the RC2
        algorithm in the cryptographic library on Windows XP SP1 and all 
        earlier versions of Windows.  It is recommended that zero length files
        not be encrypted, however programs SHOULD be prepared to extract them
        if they are found within a ZIP file.

        7.2.5.2 A pseudo-code representation of the encryption process is as follows:

            Password = GetUserPassword()
            MasterSessionKey = DeriveKey(SHA1(Password)) 
            RD = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() 
            For Each File
               IV = CryptographicStrengthRandomData() 
               VData = CryptographicStrengthRandomData()
               VCRC32 = CRC32(VData)
               FileSessionKey = DeriveKey(SHA1(IV + RD) 
               ErdData = Encrypt(RD,MasterSessionKey,IV) 
               Encrypt(VData + VCRC32 + FileData, FileSessionKey,IV)
            Done

        7.2.5.3 The function names and parameter requirements will depend on
        the choice of the cryptographic toolkit selected.  Almost any
        toolkit supporting the reference implementations for each
        algorithm can be used.  The RSA BSAFE(r), OpenSSL, and Microsoft
        CryptoAPI libraries are all known to work well.  


 7.3 Single Password - Central Directory Encryption
 --------------------------------------------------
        
    7.3.1 Central Directory Encryption is achieved within the .ZIP format by 
    encrypting the Central Directory structure.  This encapsulates the metadata 
    most often used for processing .ZIP files.  Additional metadata is stored for 
    redundancy in the Local Header for each file.  The process of concealing 
    metadata by encrypting the Central Directory does not protect the data within 
    the Local Header.  To avoid information leakage from the exposed metadata 
    in the Local Header, the fields containing information about a file are masked.  

    7.3.2 Local Header

    Masking replaces the true content of the fields for a file in the Local 
    Header with false information.  When masked, the Local Header is not 
    suitable for streaming access and the options for data recovery of damaged
    archives is reduced.  Extra Data fields that MAY contain confidential
    data SHOULD NOT be stored within the Local Header.  The value set into
    the Version needed to extract field SHOULD be the correct value needed to
    extract the file without regard to Central Directory Encryption. The fields 
    within the Local Header targeted for masking when the Central Directory is 
    encrypted are:

            Field Name                     Mask Value
            ------------------             ---------------------------
            compression method              0
            last mod file time              0
            last mod file date              0
            crc-32                          0
            compressed size                 0
            uncompressed size               0
            file name (variable size)       Base 16 value from the
                                            range 1 - 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
                                            represented as a string whose
                                            size will be set into the
                                            file name length field

    The Base 16 value assigned as a masked file name is simply a sequentially
    incremented value for each file starting with 1 for the first file.  
    Modifications to a ZIP file MAY cause different values to be stored for 
    each file.  For compatibility, the file name field in the Local Header 
    SHOULD NOT be left blank.  As of Version 6.2 of this specification, 
    the Compression Method and Compressed Size fields are not yet masked.
    Fields having a value of 0xFFFF or 0xFFFFFFFF for the ZIP64 format
    SHOULD NOT be masked.  

    7.3.3 Encrypting the Central Directory

    Encryption of the Central Directory does not include encryption of the 
    Central Directory Signature data, the Zip64 End of Central Directory
    record, the Zip64 End of Central Directory Locator, or the End
    of Central Directory record.  The ZIP file comment data is never
    encrypted.

    Before encrypting the Central Directory, it MAY optionally be compressed.
    Compression is not required, but for storage efficiency it is assumed
    this structure will be compressed before encrypting.  Similarly, this 
    specification supports compressing the Central Directory without
    requiring that it also be encrypted.  Early implementations of this
    feature will assume the encryption method applied to files matches the 
    encryption applied to the Central Directory.

    Encryption of the Central Directory is done in a manner similar to
    that of file encryption.  The encrypted data is preceded by a 
    decryption header.  The decryption header is known as the Archive
    Decryption Header.  The fields of this record are identical to
    the decryption header preceding each encrypted file.  The location
    of the Archive Decryption Header is determined by the value in the
    Start of the Central Directory field in the Zip64 End of Central
    Directory record.  When the Central Directory is encrypted, the
    Zip64 End of Central Directory record will always be present.

    The layout of the Zip64 End of Central Directory record for all
    versions starting with 6.2 of this specification will follow the
    Version 2 format.  The Version 2 format is as follows:

    The leading fixed size fields within the Version 1 format for this
    record remain unchanged.  The record signature for both Version 1 
    and Version 2 will be 0x06064b50.  Immediately following the last
    byte of the field known as the Offset of Start of Central 
    Directory With Respect to the Starting Disk Number will begin the 
    new fields defining Version 2 of this record.  

    7.3.4 New fields for Version 2

    Note: all fields stored in Intel low-byte/high-byte order.

              Value                 Size       Description
              -----                 ----       -----------
              Compression Method    2 bytes    Method used to compress the
                                               Central Directory
              Compressed Size       8 bytes    Size of the compressed data
              Original   Size       8 bytes    Original uncompressed size
              AlgId                 2 bytes    Encryption algorithm ID
              BitLen                2 bytes    Encryption key length
              Flags                 2 bytes    Encryption flags
              HashID                2 bytes    Hash algorithm identifier
              Hash Length           2 bytes    Length of hash data
              Hash Data             (variable) Hash data

     The Compression Method accepts the same range of values as the 
     corresponding field in the Central Header.

     The Compressed Size and Original Size values will not include the
     data of the Central Directory Signature which is compressed or
     encrypted.

     The AlgId, BitLen, and Flags fields accept the same range of values
     the corresponding fields within the 0x0017 record. 

     Hash ID identifies the algorithm used to hash the Central Directory 
     data.  This data does not have to be hashed, in which case the
     values for both the HashID and Hash Length will be 0.  Possible 
     values for HashID are:

              Value         Algorithm
             ------         ---------
             0x0000          none
             0x0001          CRC32
             0x8003          MD5
             0x8004          SHA1
             0x8007          RIPEMD160
             0x800C          SHA256
             0x800D          SHA384
             0x800E          SHA512

     7.3.5 When the Central Directory data is signed, the same hash algorithm
     used to hash the Central Directory for signing SHOULD be used.
     This is recommended for processing efficiency, however, it is 
     permissible for any of the above algorithms to be used independent 
     of the signing process.

     The Hash Data will contain the hash data for the Central Directory.
     The length of this data will vary depending on the algorithm used.

     The Version Needed to Extract SHOULD be set to 62.

     The value for the Total Number of Entries on the Current Disk will
     be 0.  These records will no longer support random access when
     encrypting the Central Directory.

     7.3.6 When the Central Directory is compressed and/or encrypted, the
     End of Central Directory record will store the value 0xFFFFFFFF
     as the value for the Total Number of Entries in the Central
     Directory.  The value stored in the Total Number of Entries in
     the Central Directory on this Disk field will be 0.  The actual
     values will be stored in the equivalent fields of the Zip64
     End of Central Directory record.

     7.3.7 Decrypting and decompressing the Central Directory is accomplished
     in the same manner as decrypting and decompressing a file.

 7.4 Certificate Processing Method
 ---------------------------------

    The Certificate Processing Method for ZIP file encryption 
    defines the following additional data fields:

    7.4.1 Certificate Flag Values

    Additional processing flags that can be present in the Flags field of both 
    the 0x0017 field of the central directory Extra Field and the Decryption 
    header record preceding compressed file data are:

         0x0007 - reserved for future use
         0x000F - reserved for future use
         0x0100 - Indicates non-OAEP key wrapping was used.  If this
                  this field is set, the version needed to extract MUST
                  be at least 61.  This means OAEP key wrapping is not
                  used when generating a Master Session Key using
                  ErdData.
         0x4000 - ErdData MUST be decrypted using 3DES-168, otherwise use the
                  same algorithm used for encrypting the file contents.
         0x8000 - reserved for future use


    7.4.2 CertData - Extra Field 0x0017 record certificate data structure

    The data structure used to store certificate data within the section
    of the Extra Field defined by the CertData field of the 0x0017
    record are as shown:

          Value     Size     Description

          HSize     2 bytes  Hash size
          SRList    (var)    Simple list of recipients hashed public keys

                          
         RCount    This defines the number intended recipients whose 
                   public keys were used for encryption.  This identifies
                   the number of elements in the SRList.

         HashAlg   This defines the hash algorithm used to calculate
                   the public key hash of each public key used
                   for encryption. This field currently supports
                   only the following value for SHA-1

                   0x8004 - SHA1

         HSize     This defines the size of a hashed public key.

         SRList    This is a variable length list of the hashed 
                   public keys for each intended recipient.  Each 
                   element in this list is HSize.  The total size of 
                   SRList is determined using RCount * HSize.


    7.4.3 Reserved1 - Certificate Decryption Header Reserved1 Data

          Value     Size     Description
          -----     ----     -----------
          RCount    4 bytes  Number of recipients.  
                      
          RCount   This defines the number intended recipients whose 
                   public keys were used for encryption.  This defines
                   the number of elements in the REList field defined below.


    7.4.4 Reserved2 - Certificate Decryption Header Reserved2 Data Structures


          Value     Size     Description
          -----     ----     -----------
          HashAlg   2 bytes  Hash algorithm identifier
          HSize     2 bytes  Hash size
          REList    (var)    List of recipient data elements


         HashAlg   This defines the hash algorithm used to calculate
                   the public key hash of each public key used
                   for encryption. This field currently supports
                   only the following value for SHA-1

                       0x8004 - SHA1

         HSize     This defines the size of a hashed public key
                   defined in REHData.

         REList    This is a variable length of list of recipient data.  
                   Each element in this list consists of a Recipient
                   Element data structure as follows:


        Recipient Element (REList) Data Structure:

              Value     Size     Description
              -----     ----     -----------

             RESize    This defines the size of an individual REList 
                       element.  This value is the combined size of the
                       REHData field + REKData field.  REHData is defined by
                       HSize.  REKData is variable and can be calculated
                       for each REList element using RESize and HSize.

                       Microsoft.

7.5 Certificate Processing - Central Directory Encryption
---------------------------------------------------------
        
    7.5.1 Central Directory Encryption using Digital Certificates will 
    operate in a manner similar to that of Single Password Central
    Directory Encryption.  This record will only be present when there 
    is data to place into it.  Currently, data is placed into this
    record when digital certificates are used for either encrypting 
    or signing the files within a ZIP file.  When only password 
    encryption is used with no certificate encryption or digital 
    signing, this record is not currently needed. When present, this 
    record will appear before the start of the actual Central Directory 
    data structure and will be located immediately after the Archive 
    Decryption Header if the Central Directory is encrypted.

    7.5.2 The Archive Extra Data record will be used to store the following
    information.  Additional data MAY be added in future versions.

    Extra Data Fields:

    0x0014 - PKCS#7 Store for X.509 Certificates
    0x0016 - X.509 Certificate ID and Signature for central directory
    0x0019 - PKCS#7 Encryption Recipient Certificate List

    The 0x0014 and 0x0016 Extra Data records that otherwise would be 
    located in the first record of the Central Directory for digital 
    certificate processing. When encrypting or compressing the Central 
    Directory, the 0x0014 and 0x0016 records MUST be located in the 
    Archive Extra Data record and they SHOULD NOT remain in the first 
    Central Directory record.  The Archive Extra Data record will also 
    be used to store the 0x0019 data. 

    7.5.3 When present, the size of the Archive Extra Data record will be
    included in the size of the Central Directory.  The data of the
    Archive Extra Data record will also be compressed and encrypted
    along with the Central Directory data structure.

7.6 Certificate Processing Differences
--------------------------------------

    7.6.1 The Certificate Processing Method of encryption differs from the
    Single Password Symmetric Encryption Method as follows.  Instead
    of using a user-defined password to generate a master session key,
    cryptographically random data is used.  The key material is then
    wrapped using standard key-wrapping techniques.  This key material
    is wrapped using the public key of each recipient that will need
    to decrypt the file using their corresponding private key.

    7.6.2 This specification currently assumes digital certificates will follow
    the X.509 V3 format for 1024 bit and higher RSA format digital
    certificates.  Implementation of this Certificate Processing Method
    requires supporting logic for key access and management.  This logic
    is outside the scope of this specification.

7.7 OAEP Processing with Certificate-based Encryption
-----------------------------------------------------

    7.7.1 OAEP stands for Optimal Asymmetric Encryption Padding.  It is a
    strengthening technique used for small encoded items such as decryption
    keys.  This is commonly applied in cryptographic key-wrapping techniques
    and is supported by PKCS #1.  Versions 5.0 and 6.0 of this specification 
    were designed to support OAEP key-wrapping for certificate-based 
    decryption keys for additional security.  

    7.7.2 Support for private keys stored on Smartcards or Tokens introduced
    a conflict with this OAEP logic.  Most card and token products do 
    not support the additional strengthening applied to OAEP key-wrapped 
    data.  In order to resolve this conflict, versions 6.1 and above of this 
    specification will no longer support OAEP when encrypting using 
    digital certificates. 

    7.7.3 Versions of PKZIP available during initial development of the 
    certificate processing method set a value of 61 into the 
    version needed to extract field for a file.  This indicates that 
    non-OAEP key wrapping is used.  This affects certificate encryption 
    only, and password encryption functions SHOULD NOT be affected by 
    this value.  This means values of 61 MAY be found on files encrypted
    with certificates only, or on files encrypted with both password
    encryption and certificate encryption.  Files encrypted with both
    methods can safely be decrypted using the password methods documented.

7.8 Additional Encryption/Decryption Data Records
-----------------------------------------------------

    7.8.1 Additional information MAY be stored within a ZIP file in support
    of the strong password and certificate encryption methods defined above.
    These include, but are not limited to the following record types.

      0x0021        Policy Decryption Key Record
      0x0022        Smartcrypt Key Provider Record
      0x0023        Smartcrypt Policy Key Data Record

8.0  Splitting and Spanning ZIP files
-------------------------------------

    8.1 Spanned ZIP files

      8.1.1 Spanning is the process of segmenting a ZIP file across 
      multiple removable media. This support has typically only 
      been provided for DOS formatted floppy diskettes. 

    8.2 Split ZIP files

      8.2.1 File splitting is a newer derivation of spanning.  
      Splitting follows the same segmentation process as
      spanning, however, it does not require writing each
      segment to a unique removable medium and instead supports
      placing all pieces onto local or non-removable locations
      such as file systems, local drives, folders, etc.

    8.3  File Naming Differences

      8.3.1 A key difference between spanned and split ZIP files is
      that all pieces of a spanned ZIP file have the same name.  
      Since each piece is written to a separate volume, no name 
      collisions occur and each segment can reuse the original 
      .ZIP file name given to the archive.

      8.3.2 Sequence ordering for DOS spanned archives uses the DOS 
      volume label to determine segment numbers.  Volume labels
      for each segment are written using the form PKBACK#xxx, 
      where xxx is the segment number written as a decimal 
      value from 001 - nnn.

      8.3.3 Split ZIP files are typically written to the same location
      and are subject to name collisions if the spanned name
      format is used since each segment will reside on the same 
      drive. To avoid name collisions, split archives are named 
      as follows.

      Segment 1   = filename.z01
      Segment n-1 = filename.z(n-1)
      Segment n   = filename.zip

      8.3.4 The .ZIP extension is used on the last segment to support
      quickly reading the central directory.  The segment number
      n SHOULD be a decimal value.
        
    8.4  Spanned Self-extracting ZIP Files
        
      8.4.1 Spanned ZIP files MAY be PKSFX Self-extracting ZIP files.
      PKSFX files MAY also be split, however, in this case
      the first segment MUST be named filename.exe.  The first
      segment of a split PKSFX archive MUST be large enough to
      include the entire executable program.

    8.5  Capacities and Markers
        
      8.5.1 Capacities for split archives are as follows:

      Maximum number of segments = 4,294,967,295 - 1
      Maximum .ZIP segment size = 4,294,967,295 bytes 
      Minimum segment size = 64K
      Maximum PKSFX segment size = 2,147,483,647 bytes
          
      8.5.2 Segment sizes MAY be different however by convention, all 
      segment sizes SHOULD be the same with the exception of the 
      last, which MAY be smaller.  Local and central directory 
      header records MUST NOT be split across a segment boundary. 
      When writing a header record, if the number of bytes remaining 
      within a segment is less than the size of the header record,
      end the current segment and write the header at the start
      of the next segment.  The central directory MAY span segment
      boundaries, but no single record in the central directory
      SHOULD be split across segments.

      8.5.3 Spanned/Split archives created using PKZIP for Windows
      (V2.50 or greater), PKZIP Command Line (V2.50 or greater),
      or PKZIP Explorer will include a special spanning 
      signature as the first 4 bytes of the first segment of
      the archive.  This signature (0x08074b50) will be 
      followed immediately by the local header signature for
      the first file in the archive.  

      8.5.4 A special spanning marker MAY also appear in spanned/split 
      archives if the spanning or splitting process starts but 
      only requires one segment.  In this case the 0x08074b50 
      signature will be replaced with the temporary spanning 
      marker signature of 0x30304b50.  Split archives can
      only be uncompressed by other versions of PKZIP that
      know how to create a split archive.

      8.5.5 The signature value 0x08074b50 is also used by some
      ZIP implementations as a marker for the Data Descriptor 
      record.  Conflict in this alternate assignment can be
      avoided by ensuring the position of the signature
      within the ZIP file to determine the use for which it
      is intended.  

9.0 Change Process
------------------

   9.1 In order for the .ZIP file format to remain a viable technology, this
   specification SHOULD be considered as open for periodic review and
   revision.  Although this format was originally designed with a 
   certain level of extensibility, not all changes in technology
   (present or future) were or will be necessarily considered in its
   design.  

   9.2 If your application requires new definitions to the
   extensible sections in this format, or if you would like to 
   submit new data structures or new capabilities, please forward 
   your request to zipformat@pkware.com.  All submissions will be 
   reviewed by the ZIP File Specification Committee for possible 
   inclusion into future versions of this specification.  

   9.3 Periodic revisions to this specification will be published as
   DRAFT or as FINAL status to ensure interoperability. We encourage 
   comments and feedback that MAY help improve clarity or content.

APPENDIX D - Language Encoding (EFS)
------------------------------------

D.1 The ZIP format has historically supported only the original IBM PC character 
encoding set, commonly referred to as IBM Code Page 437.  This limits storing 
file name characters to only those within the original MS-DOS range of values 
and does not properly support file names in other character encodings, or 
languages. To address this limitation, this specification will support the 
following change. 

D.2 If general purpose bit 11 is unset, the file name and comment SHOULD conform 
to the original ZIP character encoding.  If general purpose bit 11 is set, the 
filename and comment MUST support The Unicode Standard, Version 4.1.0 or 
greater using the character encoding form defined by the UTF-8 storage 
specification.  The Unicode Standard is published by the The Unicode
Consortium (www.unicode.org).  UTF-8 encoded data stored within ZIP files 
is expected to not include a byte order mark (BOM). 

D.3 Applications MAY choose to supplement this file name storage through the use 
of the 0x0008 Extra Field.  Storage for this optional field is currently 
undefined, however it will be used to allow storing extended information 
on source or target encoding that MAY further assist applications with file 
name, or file content encoding tasks.  Please contact PKWARE with any
requirements on how this field SHOULD be used.

D.4 The 0x0008 Extra Field storage MAY be used with either setting for general 
purpose bit 11.  Examples of the intended usage for this field is to store 
whether "modified-UTF-8" (JAVA) is used, or UTF-8-MAC.  Similarly, other 
commonly used character encoding (code page) designations can be indicated 
through this field.  Formalized values for use of the 0x0008 record remain 
undefined at this time.  The definition for the layout of the 0x0008 field
will be published when available.  Use of the 0x0008 Extra Field provides
for storing data within a ZIP file in an encoding other than IBM Code
Page 437 or UTF-8.

D.5 General purpose bit 11 will not imply any encoding of file content or
password.  Values defining character encoding for file content or 
password MUST be stored within the 0x0008 Extended Language Encoding 
Extra Field.

D.6 Ed Gordon of the Info-ZIP group has defined a pair of "extra field" records 
that can be used to store UTF-8 file name and file comment fields.  These
records can be used for cases when the general purpose bit 11 method
for storing UTF-8 data in the standard file name and comment fields is
not desirable.  A common case for this alternate method is if backward
compatibility with older programs is required.

D.7 Definitions for the record structure of these fields are included above 
in the section on 3rd party mappings for "extra field" records.  These
records are identified by Header ID's 0x6375 (Info-ZIP Unicode Comment 
Extra Field) and 0x7075 (Info-ZIP Unicode Path Extra Field).

D.8 The choice of which storage method to use when writing a ZIP file is left
to the implementation.  Developers SHOULD expect that a ZIP file MAY 
contain either method and SHOULD provide support for reading data in 
either format. Use of general purpose bit 11 reduces storage requirements 
for file name data by not requiring additional "extra field" data for
each file, but can result in older ZIP programs not being able to extract 
files.  Use of the 0x6375 and 0x7075 records will result in a ZIP file 
that SHOULD always be readable by older ZIP programs, but requires more 
storage per file to write file name and/or file comment fields.

APPENDIX E - AE-x encryption marker
-----------------------------------

E.1 AE-x defines an alternate password-based encryption method used 
in ZIP files that is based on a file encryption utility developed by 
Dr. Brian Gladman.  Information on Dr. Gladman's method is available at 

   http://www.gladman.me.uk/cryptography_technology/fileencrypt/

E.2 AE-x uses AES with CTR (counter mode) and HMAC-SHA1.  It defines
encryption using key sizes of 128 bits or 256 bits.  It does not 
restrict support for decrypting 192 bits.

E.3 This method uses the standard ZIP encryption bit (bit 0) 
of the general purpose bit flag (section 4.4.4) to indicate a
file is encrypted.  

E.4 The compression method field (section 4.4.5) is set to 99 
to indicate a file has been encrypted using this method.

E.5 The actual compression method is stored in an extra field
structure identified by a Header ID of 0x9901. Information on this
record structure can be found at http://www.winzip.com/aes_info.htm.

E.6 Two versions are defined for the 0x9901 structure.  

   E.6.1 Version 1 stores the file CRC value in the CRC-32 field
   (section 4.4.7). 

   E.6.2 Version 2 stores a value of 0 in the CRC-32 field.
