I read in an old thread here that saving epub to epub in Calibre would help. But when I try, it gets stuck in 47%. Has anyone been successful uploading a fixed-layout exported from Indesign cc 2015 to Nook? Any suggestions or tips would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi:

Well, unless something has DRAMATICALLY changed, NookPress and Nook don't support FXL. They have a proprietary format for NookKids, which is essentially iAuthor, but that's not available to self-publishers, anyway. And, to top it off, you have to be an approved NookKids' book producer to obtain the proprietary NookKids' software--which is utterly unrelated to FXL as you know it from INDD.

What parameters are you using? For what you're trying to do?
