DiapDealer:

I am new to this forum, thank you for having me. I do epubs (and PDF and mobi ebooks) for a couple of small publishers, starting with indesign and/or xml files.

Thanks for a VERY handy plugin. It makes cleaning up the InDesign epub mess rather a breeze. (On a separate but hopefully not too unrelated note I would be interested in hearing from any forum members about their experience with Indesign epub creation. I am finding that files that are set up with that work well for print layout really need re-tooling if the generated epub files are to be clean and well organized.)

One question I had on your plugin -- my experience is that when I run the plugin the changes are made to the files even though I aborted rather than clicking commit changes. Of course I can close and elect not to save the changes from Sigil's main window, but I assumed that when the plugin offers the opportunity to abort it is the changes to the files that is being aborted...let me know if the question/comment makes no sense.

Thanks again for a great forum.
