Reverse order xhtml files inside epub

yonkyunior · 05-03-2018, 10:10 AM

I've epub contains blog articles,
and the articles order is from newest to oldest.

btw, is there a way/feature to reorder the xhtml inside, so i can read from oldest to newest (reverse order).

i know reorder through drag n drop, the files 2000+,

If you are on linux/macOS simply copy paste the <spine> section of the OPF into a file. Then run

sort -r < spine_file > reversed_spine_file

Then copy/paste the reversed entries from reversed_spine_file into the OPF.
