Image with link not appearing in Epub...
Hello,

I'm not sure if this thread belongs here or in the Calibre section, for while I had used Calibre to convert my book into a reflowable Epub (from a Word document), it is within Sigil that I'm able to look into its data.

The Ebook that has 4 different images (excluding the cover). The other 3 are all maps, and they're appearing fine, but the one in question is an image showing off a different book, with a link to it. This is the one that's not appearing at all (but the link still works). I'm under the impression having a link might be playing a part in why it's not appearing when I try to view the Epub in an Ereader (I've used Calibre, Thorium and Icecream Ebook reader, all with the same results).

This is the metadata for the page (which is literally just meant to be the one image):

https://pasteboard.co/K8vOPbJ.jpg

And here's how it's currently appearing in Calibre reader:

https://pasteboard.co/K8vOciY.jpg

I hope this is enough info. This was my first time creating an Epub straight from a Word document, as in the past I've been using InDesign, but had heard there were cleaner ways to do it.

Thanks in advance.

EDIT: My images aren't appearing here either, so I've linked to them instead.

Need to see the manifest entry for the image in the opf file to be sure, but it's probably a case-sensitivity issue with the path in the img tag's href attribute.

Can you open your epub with a zip utility and post the directory structure?

The file names don't match. From the OPF:

href="images/LandOfBeastsBookFunnelB%26W.jpeg"

From the html:

src="images/LandOfBeastsBookFunnelBW.jpeg"

Either remove the encoded ampersand (%26j from the opf entry, or add it to img src in the html. Probably the latter if the image's file name in Book Browser actually has an ampersand in it.

Ah, I see. It must've had something to do with the "&" character, as the original filename is:
"images/LandOfBeastsBookFunnelB&W.jpeg"

It seems the html must've removed the "&", whereas the OPF tried to keep it, but converted it into computer syntax (or whatever the correct term is).

I've removed the "%26" from the OPF, and also renamed the image to just "BW", so it all matches. It seems to be working now.

Thanks a ton!

For the record: it should work fine with an ampersand in the file name. Nothing in Sigil's code prevents it (nor should Sigil remove the encoded ampersand from the html in its normal processing). It's just not good practice to use spaces or special characters in filenames in an epub. But all's well that ends well.
