ie. Must be cbz or cbr extension not zip/rar and must be correctly named - a zip cannot be cbr, and vice versa.
All files must be in the root of the archive and not stored in a subfolder or a series of subfolders.
No other files must be present besides images?
There cannot be any files with identical names in the archive? (000.jpg in one subfolder, and another 000.jpg in another subfolder).
Hi

What are you using?

Try pdflrf (for windoze) or uncompress with rar/zip to a directory and then img2pdf (java, cross platform) Both of them work fine for me. The first has a lot of useful options.

Bye
