@JawadLeLogeur: The Kobo devices do have some file name constraints. There are maximum lengths for the paths involved as well as restrictions in the character sets used. You will need to do the renaming. There are various tools around to do this, but, I don't do it enough to be able to recommend something. Trying KCC as @salamanderjuice suggested, is a good idea. The kepubs it produces seem to work well.

You can report the problem to Kobo, and they may fix it in the future. But, I would expect it to be a fairly low priority to them (overall impact of the change, how many people have seen it, the fact there is a workaround).
