LSZip

LSZip is a high-performance Rapid Application Development (RAD) compression library for Windows Designed for quick implementation, LSZip is a useful and high-performance Rapid Application Development (RAD) compression library for Windows.

With LSZip you can add industry-standard Pkzip and WinZip compatible (2.04g format) data compression capabilities to your own programs. Our data compression libraries allow to create and manage Zip archives in your Windows NT/2000/XP/2003, 95/98/ME, and even Windows 3.1x applications without having to shell out to a "DOS" session. Time critical routines are written in fast, highly-optimized assembler code and can perform at speeds up to 200% faster than other Zip libraries.

Why do you need LSZip?

Your programs handle more data than ever before. That\'s why data compression is so important. LSZip\'s state of the art data compression prevents the size of your data from growing out of control.

Data backup isn\'t the most glamorous of subjects, but it takes on a whole new shine after you or your customers have lost a vital file or, more seriously, an entire volume. Have you or your customers ever lost a full year accounting data or a long report due to a system crash? It\'s not a good feeling. Especially if you have lost something you need to stay in competition, to stay alive. If this has never happened to you, be warned that your time is coming.

Our LSZip product focuses on streamlining data transfers, as well as creating the comfort of secure transactions. Used individually or collectively, LSZip reduces transfer times and storage needs while ensuring data integrity and security. LSZip cuts file size and transmission costs up to 90%!

Self-Extractor SDK

LSZip comes with a free LSZip Self-Extractor SDK. It provides an easy and royalty-free way for Windows software application developers to add self-extracting Zip archive creation directly into their own 32-bit Windows applications. The Self-Extractor SDK lets your Windows applications transform an already existing Zip file into a self-extracting zip archive.

Technology that works quietly behind the scenes

The LSZip libraries do not force your applications to display some sort of screen that the compression functionality is powered by Lindersoft. Some compression toolkits require applications to denote their "Makers" or to display something like a "Splash" screen. Our compression technology works quietly behind the scenes! There are literally hundreds of thousands of copies of the LSZip libraries in use every day.
