"files not listed in OPF" ARE listed. what do I do?

Hi everyone,

Just joined on the strong recommendation of another forum. I've successfully uploaded various ePubs to Apple's iBookstore, but on this latest title I'm getting a bizarre error:

"WARNING: Verse.epub: item (__MACOSX/OEBPS/images/._amazon_large_fmt.png) exists in the zip file, but is not declared in the OPF file"

The error in itself is clear enough, what's strange is that this file, and two others similarly named, ARE indeed listed in my content.OPF file, in the manifest section, as follows:


<item id="amazon_large_fmt.png" href="images/amazon_large_fmt.png" media-type="image/png"/>
<item id="amazon_large_fmt1.png" href="images/amazon_large_fmt1.png" media-type="image/png"/>
<item id="amazon_large_fmt2.png" href="images/amazon_large_fmt2.png" media-type="image/png"/>


I am at wit's end. I would understand if the files had different names, but as you can see from the error and the code, the file names are the same. (I don't quite get the "._" after the images/ reference in the error.)

One other strange thing is that my ePub Checker software does not catch any errors (I have version 1.1.1 for the Mac), but the Kobo team did get the same error using http://www.pagina-online.de/software/epub-checker/.

Many thanks again.

Anyone have any ideas? I would be so grateful for any insights.
