One thing I forget to mention is that when I am updating the metadata if need be, I'm also editing the ePub for other changes such as adding a proper cover, removing embedded font, fixing some CSS, removing all unused CSS, etc.
Huh? The first quote says you edit the OPF when editing the book using the calibre editor. The second says that you let calibre do this for you. Which is it?
