The most recent info I have been able to find is from 2017, do later builds have a solution? The methods I have seen so far:

  • Call 7 ZIP and extract the archive
  • Convert to html
  • use a pythoncaller

Pythoncaller is probably the simplest solution, but I would like to try and achieve this using native FME if I can, as this is a training exercise in the software.

I'd say your best bet at this stage is to use a python caller. There seem to be a few libraries that can achieve this, specifically this one which also appears to be able to extract images and tables
