Your use case is not the only one that exists. It may be that the proper approach is to add "delete encryption.xml if present" to the "remove embedded fonts" routine, no checkbox required.
Yes, that's one way to do it. Or just have that one check box saying "Remove embedded fonts AND/OR any encryption.xml files" so that either or both, if extant, will be removed.

Quality Check PI may need a new Check EPUB Style 'Test' for this file as a companion utility
That too. Although (as I said somewhere above) I did isolate the ebooks with xml files easily enough using Quality Check "search in html", searching on code. Certainly doable, but quite a lengthy check through a large library.

I just thought it'd be nice to get rid of it all in one go when I insert my jackets and do all the other Modify ePub stuff I do to every ebook I add as a matter of course. Up to Grant, now....

Can Modify ePub be modified so these silly ePub 3 ePub that the publishers are releasing can be modified to be ePub 2?

No. The majority of them are backwards-compatible; deal with it.

I know they are backwards compatible, but they get screwed up if edited in Sigil.

That's not my problem. Talk to the Sigil folls about why their software can't cope with the current standard. Even better, try using the Calibre editor that does handle EPUB 3 correctly. (Well, aside from throwing a few spurious warnings - but it doesn't break anything.)

Thanks for the very useful plugin!

I've got a request regarding the "update metadata" function. I'd like the plugin to remove the metadata related to the custom columns removed from calibre library.
(I can delete the non dc meta and then update them, but there are some non dc metadata and comments I'd like to keep.)
Is it possible?
Thanks anyway!

That is a good idea and I added an option to keep three pieces of non dc: metadata
  • <meta name=cover content="mycover"/>
  • <meta name="calibre:series" content="Some Series">
  • <meta name="calibre:series_index" content="some_series_number">

What does everyone think?
Is there anything else people will usually want to keep?

Personally, I think the removal of the entries like
Code:
<dc:contributor opf:role="bkp">calibre (2.51.0) [http://calibre-ebook.com]</dc:contributor>
<meta content="0.9.3" name="Sigil version"/>
is not within the spirit of Open Source Software usage

Credit, where credit is due

Personally, I don't think that matters.
The option is available for the sake of pruning unneeded info -- those aren't needed.
Whether the option "should" be available is irrelevant, and highly subjective anyway.

The cover and series info OTOH is needed, or at least serves a common utility.



P.S. dc:contributor IS a DC element.

That's great, thanks!
I'm using also comments inside the opf file, like this:
Code:
<!--bla bla bla-->
But I understand this is a very personal thing...

@senhal - maybe irrelevant now but, I think you could have gotten what you wanted (removal of 'old' custom columns), if you had ran the PI with Remove non dc: metadata elements checked and all others unchecked, and then ran it again Update metadata checked and all others unchecked.

Personally, I want no Calibre metadata other than the version used (for a conversion). So those two Calibre columns I would want deleted. If I've used Sigil to edit the ePub, I want to keep the Sigil version metadata.

One way to do is it to list all the non DC metadata with check boxes and we can decide what we want or not.

Strip Spans not working
For reasons best known to MS, in Word 2010 they decided they'd handle bookmarks as links - a'la references, endnotes and index entries.

As a consequence calibre conversion drops <span id="bookmark"> and <span> tags into the html - sample attached. BTW calibre is not the only software effected, many in-house bespoke applications were similarly effected. Response from MS was a typical shrug.

So my question is, can Modify be adjusted to remove these unreferenced spans.

The Toolbag PI treats those as Naked spans (ignores id= part)
