Github user bodewig commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/commons-compress/pull/24 Many thanks @kvr000 Have you thought about adding a class implementing `ZipExtraField` for padding? You could add that to the entry if you detect padding is necessary and could remove code that now needs to know about the encoding of extra fields from `ZipArchiveOutputStream`. The central directory size should be 0 then. It would also preserve the padding information when an archive is read which may be useful when re-packing existing entries as you could strip or modify the padding extra field directly. Finally I wonder whether `setAlignment` should reject values bigger than 64k right away.
