Question fb2 --> epub

I have tried to convert several files from fb2 --> epub and while the conversion appears to run smoothly, and within Calibre I can view the epub version fine -- when I try to read within Apple's ibooks/Books application, I always get a "file is corrupt" error message when I try to open the file.

Is there another step that can be taken to make the epub Apple Books friendly?

This is a bug in ibooks, you either need to downgrade to mojave or wait for apple to fix it in catalina.

Smile Thank you

Thank you.

So previous mac OS versions have been able to open the files without a problem?
