I have a folder with 77K PDFs(~500 GB in size). I want to zip them into 77 zipped files, each containing 1000 PDFs, so that they are easier to upload and share with peers. I don't know how to write for loops in bash and use the zip commands there, but I saw some examples in this question. Can someone help me out here?
The filenames go like this :
FinalRoll_MR_ACNo_@PartNo_%%.pdf
The @ and %% are numbers. If I can zip the first 1000 files in a file like archive_1.tar.gz and so on, then it'd be great! If we can retain the order of files in alphabetical order, then it'll be even better!
I am using an AWS server that's running Ubuntu.
Thanks in advance!

You say "zip" (which is an available utility), but then show a sample output filename of .tar.gz, which implies a gzipped tar file. Which would you like?
