ePUB Optimizer

[Toxaris]

No problem. I haven't gotten the time yet to dive into it. It is strange though, since I usually first update my website and then this post.

[jcsalomon]

Version 0.7.1 (because 0.7.2 is not available to download), Sigil 0.9.8, and I get this error message:

I’ve used this successfully in the past. Can I send you a file it’s failing on?

[Toxaris]

Sure.

[jcsalomon]

PM sent.

[Toxaris]

I saw, I hope to get around to it on Wednesday.

I have uploaded a new version (now really 0.7.2) that should fix the issue jcsalomon had. I have the feeling I fixed that earlier but somehow did not upload the fix.

Every time I try to use your plugin (v0.7.2, Sigil 0.9.9) I get this error:

Status: failed

    print(result[0].decode('utf-8'))

What can I do?

The author must have accidentally uploaded an older version, because in the downloaded version one commented-out line causes this error.

You might be able to fix this yourself:

1. Locate the ePubOptimizer plugin folder in the Sigil plugins folder (Edit > Preferences > Open Preferences Location)

2. Open plugin.py with a text editor and change the following line from:

    #result = OptiWrapper(*args)

to

    result = OptiWrapper(*args)

(I.e. remove the # sign.)

3. (Optional) open plugin.xml and insert the following line:

<autostart>true</autostart>

after:

<name>ePUBOptimizer</name>

(This'll automatically start the plugin.)

If this doesn't fix your problem, current Calibre versions offer font subsetting and image optimization features via the Polish ePub tool.

Not an old version, just forgot to remove the hash tag... I added it to for testing purposes. I will update this later this week, as I do not have access to my development machine for the next few days.

I have uploaded a new version that should work... Sorry about this.

Strange, I cannot reproduce this. What is your Python version?

bravosx edited his post to mask his user name, which contained Eastern European(?) characters. IIRC, some Python features require encoding/decoding file names that contain non-ASCII characters.
Since your user name most likely only contains ASCII characters you won't see the problem.

Could be, but Python3 is UTF-8 oriented therefore I did/do not expected this issue. The output should be UTF-8 encoded AFAIK.

Python version integrated with Sigil 0.9.9

Doitsu is right. The masked user name contains Polish letters: ł, Ż.
