Validation error message???
I have been trying to validate an epub file of the book I'm working on and I keep on getting the message below. I can't figure out what the problem with the file is. I made the epub in Sigil.

I made the file in Sigil so I wasn't sure if it was a sigil error or something else.

Yeah, you put the author's name in the opf:role's value field instead of the dc:creator value field.
The opf:role for the dc:creator property should be "aut". If you use Sigil's Metadata editor to Add the Author metadata, you only need replace the [Author name here] part. The aut role will be pre-populated already. Last edited by DiapDealer; 01-11-2018 at 08:37 PM. |
