Note: ZK library can also be found inside an existing ZK project. Hence, this step should be performed using a tool such as the ZK Default Theme Extractor Utility (ztx.bat). If you also want to tailor the view for tablet-clients, you would need the complete set of files that makes up the default theme.ДЄlthough manually collecting the files directly from the ZK library files is possible, the process is tedious and error-prone. Nonetheless, please note that the two official standard themes are desktop-only themes. Since sapphire and silvertail are two official examples of archive-based themes, web developers could simply clone the zkthemes project, and use one of these themes as a starting point. The general idea is described in the introductory paragraph.

The top-level subdirectories for this folder should look similar to the figure below.Д¬reating an archive-based theme can be broken down into the following steps. Once those resources are extracted from the respective java archives while preserving the original directory structure, they can become a basis for a new theme, and be ready to be packaged inside a jar file. In addition to the stylesheets and associated images, the tablet-enhanced theme also contains a property file ( default.theme-properties) that could be used to easily customize attributes such as font-sizes and color values. In ZK EE, users will also have access to a tablet-enhanced theme in zkmax.jar.
