Can you please verify that the attached scrambled epub also exhibits the same problem (exhibited on the Kobo device) that the original had?
|
I'll do that and see what happens, thank you.

Yes, but you said the EPUB was created with Sigil. And Sigil always includes the DOCTYPE.
|
The original file has the DOCTYPE header and does not present any errors or warnings when opening with Sigil. Only the scrambled version does, because for some reason scrambling removes the DOCTYPE header.

it used to be that getting one to use the epub3 renderer involved renaming the file (.kepub.epub) or actually converting to .kepub.
|
If that was the case, then why do different epub3 files, created in the same conditions, work?
Also, the Kobo guidelenes state the following:
"3. Drag your EPUB onto the device. To trigger the Kobo WebKit, change the file extension to “.kepub.epub”. To trigger the Kobo WebKit for a Fixed Layout title, change the extension to “.fxl.kepub.epub”. (
If the extension is left unchanged it will render using the Adobe Digital Editions WebKit. This is the default display engine for sideloaded content to enable bookmarking, searching and highlighting.)"
I can send a couple of working epubs, also made by myself, to see if someone can find any relevant differences.

Also did you test your problem issue with other epub3 compliant readers?

I tested it on multiple apps (Android: Moon+Reader, Kobo App, Google Play Books; Windows: Calibre, ADE, Kobo App), and none of them present any issues. I don't have any e-reader device (I ask a friend to test it in the Kobo), but it seems to be working everywhere else.
Again, thank you for taking the time to give attention to this matter and answering me!
