Is the creation of the "metadata.opf" file controlled by any of the template scripting language? I was not able to find a term or syntax in the "send to device" template.
When you send an ebook file to a device, the metadata is embedded in the ebook file. There is no need for the metadata.opf. The ereader's firmware is expected to extract the information from the ebook file and use that information.
