epub3 / Apple Books Issue

rmfenwick · 09-23-2020, 04:30 PM

Hi everyone. Building an epub3 with Sigil. The epub opens well with Digital Editions (everything works perfectly). The file also converts and looks great on Kindle Preview (and passes Pagina's epubcheck).

BUT: When I test it with Apple Books, it opens great on the mac version but has a serious problem on the iPad/iPhone: The TOC that Books generates sends every link (chapter 1, 2, 3, etc) straight to the book cover.

Pulling my hair out and wondering if anyone has any advice?

Thanks so much.
