Hey, now I had the time to look further into the topic of errors of an epub. Here is an example how the conversion from epub to mobi and back to epub again can work. As you can see in the first picture there are 24 errors found by calibre and many more by epubcheck. The calibre errors are about invalid ids, the epubcheck finds errors of validation (the value of the attribute “id” is invalid. It has to be XML-name without a colon) (Col: 87 ERROR(RSC-005) and errors with attribute style is not allowed. Has to be dir, lang, version or xml:lang. (Col: 72 ERROR(RSC-005))
After the conversion from epub to mobi and from mobi back to epub you can see that the calibre errors are gone, but epubcheck finds other validation errors (took a screenshot of them). As you can see in the file preview window those ugly blank lines are gone so the reading flow is much better. But are those validation errors a dealbreaker or just something which could be ignored? Just want to understand more about epub errors. Thanks a lot.
