what you need is to operate throuh a loop.
for(i=0; i<app.activeDocument.pages.length;i++) { //Assuming you labelled the textframe containing the ID with ID var myID = app.activeDocument.pages[i].textFrames.item("ID").contents; //Assuming you labelled the textframe containing the ZIP with ZIP var myZip = app.activeDocument.pages[i].textFrames.item("ZIP").contents;

var myPath = //something like "/disk/folder/" //Set a path to where you want to export the pdf
var myFileName = myID + myPath + myZip + ".pdf";
//Export to PDF - the forum is full of examples, you should find easily what you are asking for with search
}
