My problem is, I only see those black bars on GPBs, and if I change the book's CSS (no matter if just a blank space), GPBs says the book can't be processed.
Well, I wondered if perhaps the book was ePUB3, because perhaps when Calibre editor saves it, it alters some of the ePUB3 coding. (Disclosure: I know NOTHING about the Calibre editor, really, and less than that about Google Play Books. You've been warned.)

Just as Sigil used to be not usable, for ePUB3 (or fixed-layout--another idea), because when it saved the file, it would override/overwrite the existing coding, to make an ePUB2-compatible book, is it possible that the Calibre editor is changing something in the metadata, or {insert list of possible stuff here, too long to list}, that is incompatible with the book? Like my example of trying to edit an ePUB3 file, with an ePUB2 editor?
