Magnus,

Currently, DSpace does not support indexing within Zip Files.  So, they 
are not searchable by default.

However, it may be possible to build a custom "indexer" (DSpace calls 
them MediaFilters) that can extract the contents of a Zip file.  This 
would take some Java programming, but if you decided to build one it may 
be something we could include in a future version of DSpace.

More information on MediaFilters and how to create custom MediaFilters 
can be found in the DSpace Documentation at:
https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC18/Transforming+DSpace+Content+%28MediaFilters%29

If you decide to try and build a MediaFilter that can extract & index 
Zip files, you are more than welcome to discuss your ideas on this 
listserv and submit your final code to our Ticket System 
(https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS)
