A one-line correction has been posted at OpenRCE. This script isn't yet complete, because it only extracts one record from the file, but the decryption appears to work.

Ok, I figured out what's going on. The first post I read about Topaz being cracked led us to unswindle which is not for Topaz. Subsequently, there is code for cracking Topaz. But it does not yet work for all Topaz files.

It's in the response if you just run it with no params.

Yes, but the tricky part is that you have to specify the record you want output and the only example is how to get an image. I was able to extract an image that way, but I'm not even sure that images are encrypted (I don't think they are in MOBI, for example).

Well, right. I think the script is far from complete and is really just the start of a full-fledged program (e.g. the epub and mobi scripts)

Yep. However, by doing:

cmbdtc11.py -v -r img:0 -o image1.jpg <ebook.tpz>

I was able to extract a complete image of the cover of my Topaz book. So the new version definitely works, it just needs to be extended.

Unfortunately, the detailed description of Topaz that was up at:

http://www.latenightcode.com/devblog...ations-part-i/

seems to be gone now. Does anybody have a copy of it?

I went through the entire book (which is "Death by Black Hole," by Neil deGrasse Tyson) and was able to extract 17 images total before the script stopped finding new images. Awesome. Now, if only I knew what other records existed. I vaguely recall the Topaz format description having information about that, over at latenightcode.com. If only it was still around!

Inserting:

print(result[0])

at line 335 line of the python script let me find out that the following record types exist in my book:

dict
dkey
glyphs
img
metadata
other
page


Interesting, eh?

I wondered about that last night, Jon, but didn't want to mention it in case you thought I thought you were dumb. Which of course, I don't.
