I was given a fixed-width EPUB file generated by Adobe InDesign. I'm wondering if it's possible to use Calibre or anything else to convert it to a reflowable EPUB file.
Given that a epub3 fixed layout ebook uses absolute positioning for pretty much every glyph on the page, you would better off going back to InDesign and exporting the book as a reflowable epub.
