The sample runs through epubcheck with no errors. You might get more responses if you posted the actual errors you are getting (or the book, rather than having someone pay $1 to answer your question).

The images are directly on my computer, how are they tmp files with such large file names? This confuses me Last edited by haydensample; 06-08-2011 at 04:09 PM. |

when importing photos into word, do they HAVE to be .jpg or .gif... I have been using .PDF

Actually I just opened the file and the images are really .jpg with a .png extension. You need to ensure the extension is correct.
In addition the main html file has multiple extensions and needs to be cleaned up. It is called tmp_d3f070c3d51342da70455e496ad37e08_eCFQIn.ch.fix ed.fc.tidied.stylehacked.xfixed.html Dale Last edited by DaleDe; 06-08-2011 at 04:38 PM. |

The code is awful. This is yet another sample that shows why Smashwords is doing things all wrong.
