EPUB?

Paul135 · 06-15-2011, 10:36 AM

I have a quick question.
I have been sent a zip file which should have a converted epub file in it but what it has is:
1. a mimetype file
2. 2 Directories
2.1 OPS with many htm files named as epub_htm
2.2 META-INF with 1 container.xml file

I believe the conversion/incomplete conversion has been done with Calibre.

Can anybody tell me what I have before I simply delete the zip?

Thanks

Sounds like you have an ePub with the wrong extension. Try changing the .zip extension to .epub and see what you get.

That did the trick!
Thanks very much for the excellent advice.
