Kiwix is able to deal with 2GB splitted ZIM files. The split ZIM files must be named xxx.zimaa, xxx.zimab, xxx.zimac, etc. To split a ZIM file you may use:
* On Microsoft Windows: [http://www.jaist.ac.jp/~hoangle/filesj/ FSJ-Lite],
* On Microsoft Windows: [http://www.fastfilejoiner.com/ FFSJ] or [http://www.hjsplit.org/ HJ-Split] (slower option); on Windows 10, if you have [https://www.microsoft.com/en-gb/p/ubuntu/9nblggh4msv6 Bash on Ubuntu] installed, you can use the GNU/Linux commands below.
* On Apple Mac OSX: [http://loekjehe.home.xs4all.nl/Split&Concat/ Split&Concat]
* On Apple Mac OS X: [http://loekjehe.home.xs4all.nl/Split&Concat/ Split&Concat]
* On GNU/Linux and with the console: split --bytes=2000M my_big_file.zim
* On GNU/Linux in the console:<source lang="bash">split --bytes=2000M my_big_file.zim my_big_file.zim</source>
 
You can also download a pre-split version of the ZIM file by downloading a pre-indexed/portable ZIP file and copy the chunks from the directory "data/content".


To be readable by Kiwix, all chunks must be located in the same folder. Open then the xxx.zimaa file with Kiwix.
