Hi, I have a bunch of HTML files that each contain hyperlinks to pdf files: each html page has information about a person, with links to supporting documentation in pdf. I would like to be able to convert this to pub.
To do so I created an ePub in sigil by adding the existing pages (which all come with references). If I then add the pdf files, these are stored in the "Misc" directory.
Which path should I use to refer to these files? I have tried various combinations in the manifest and in the spine, but the epub fails validation.
As an example, the html page/chapter may be something like this:
Quote:
<td class="text">Reference letter by Mr X<br />
<a href="Misc/421947.pdf" style="font-size: 10pt;" target="_blank">[View Letter]</a><br />
<br />
|
Then these in manifest and spine:
Quote:
<manifest>
...
<item href="Misc/421947.pdf" id="x421947.pdf" media-type="application/pdf" />
</manifest>
<spine toc="ncx">
...
<itemref idref="421947.pdf" />
</spine>
|
changing the path in manifest to either
Quote:
<manifest>
...
<item href="Text/Misc/421947.pdf" id="x421947.pdf" media-t
</manifest>
</spine>
|
or
Quote:
<manifest>
...
<item href="421947.pdf" id="x421947.pdf" media-t
</manifest>
</spine>
|
makes no difference. I am sure I am doing something really silly, but I cannot see my mistake (unsurprising as a total noob...). Can anyone please help?
