If you update the metadata the content.opf file will reflect the author and author sort from your library.
An example (before I ran Modify ePub):
Code:
<dc:creator opf:file-as="Card, Orson Scott" opf:role="aut">Card, Orson Scott</dc:creator>
An example (after I ran Modify ePub):
Code:
<dc:creator opf:file-as="Card, Orson Scott" opf:role="aut">Orson Scott Card</dc:creator>
You can see my Author field is the default [firstname lastname].

The Modify ePub plugin will update the ePub using the fields you have set. If you don't believe it is working for you then you should post in the
Modify Epub thread and ask for help troubleshooting your work process/setup for possible problems.

Either do an ePub to ePub conversion or use the Modify ePub plugin. Both of these processes will work and I just tested the Modify ePub plugin 1.2.5 in calibre 0.8.56 and it works for me as expected.
Do you have the most recent update of Calibre and the latest Modify ePub plugin?
