Valid ePub, but not valid enough for iBooks

Hello

Wondering if anybody else has experienced this problem.

I'm working on a batch of ePub files originally generated from InDesign and then edited in Calibre. I'm now trying to get them into Apple's iBooks using the iTunes Producer app. On doing so, we're told ERROR ITMS-9000, unmanifested file "calibre_bookmarks.txt". I opened up the ePub to delete this unmanifested file (maybe that was a bad idea...) and checked that the file validated, which it did. So in theory, I think, that should be OK for iBooks - but instead I'm now getting "Invalid URI in NCX file".

Any ideas anyone?

Also interested, by the way, in experiences with iTunes Producer. We've tried to upload two titles so far - one is sitting on iTunes connect as "pending" (I wonder for how long?) and the other, though apparently uploaded (and reuploaded) successfully doesn't appear at all. Maybe Apple are having a bit of a backlog?

Thanks
Michael
