EPub

[Rebecca Mains]

Hi classmates,

I have attached the ePub that I created based on one of my lesson plans. I'm not sure it was done right, so please let me know if you can't open it. I'm going to post it here and also send out an email. Hopefully one of these will work and let you open the file!  FYI: in order to open it on my computer, I had to download and install Calibre.

Thanks,
Rebecca

Class, in order to test the ePubs from others, be sure to read these emails with your Ipad. Press and hold the attachment and choose to open with iBooks.

I found that Adobe Digital Editions will also open ePubs.

Rebecca, I was able to get your lesson to open.

Hi Sarah,

Thanks for letting me know! Do you have Adobe Digital Editions on your iPad?

Rebecca

Adobe Digital Editions is actually something I have on my laptop and on my nook from getting pre-publication copies of books.

I couldn't get your lesson to open in ibooks on my ipad.  I could get it to open using the nook app on my iPad.

Hello again,

I figured out that if you download the app Stanza, it will open and read the ePub I created. William, I hope this helps you view it. 

Thanks,

Rebecca

Class,

I believe that I have discovered two issues with the .Pub in question. 

1) The document is actaully coming through as a zip file (even though it says .epub). When using myeBookMaker, downloading the epub file and emailing should work just fine. But, when using Calibre, you will need to be careful to unzip the file or locate the exported .epub file prior to sending it. 

2) Do not try to open the ePubs from the gMail App. It doe not do a good job of letting you choose an appropriate app to do so - a newly found and slightly significant flaw in the product. Use regular Mail App, pre installed by Apple, and you will be much happier with the result.
