Kobo opens and closes to book
Sometimes I have this problem with my Kobo Forma and it usually comes when I OCR the PDF text, turn it into .docx file and then into epub.
What happens is that it opens epub on the cover page but when I click next page it stops for a few seconds and then it returns me to the "my books" menu where that book is listed as read. Which means that it skipped the whole book and went to the end and closed it. I used to think that it may have been because of unusual characters in the name of the file like ":" sign, and this one had some signs like the apostrophe sign and "&" sign. So I renamed the title of the file but the problem still persists. |

I can't get epubcheck on the main toolbar.
I've tried Preferences> Toolbars & menus> The main Toolbar And epubcheck is just not present in the left nor right column. |

So I finally managed to run the EpubCheck, and I get this message on the top that there are some errors. What do I do now?

@prom king
Each line indicates a separate error. It tells you exactly which file has the error and the line number - index_split_848.html on Line 21 for the first one. And it looks like you have a value="" probably in a <p> tag. If you are not sure how to fix, copy that entire line into a post here, so we can see how it is used, and we can tell you how to fix. The li error further down indicates a list, but looks like it is improperly used. |
