There are predictions that in future rapid technological development could result in a significant shortage of paid work. A possible option currently debated by academics, policy makers, trade unions, employers and mass media, is a shorter working week for everyone. In this context, two important research questions that have not been asked so far are: what is the minimum amount of paid employment needed to deliver some or all of the well-being and mental health benefits that employment has been shown to bring? And what is the optimum number of working hours at which the mental health of workers is at its highest? To answer these questions, this study used the UK Household Longitudinal Study (2009-2018) data from individuals aged between 16 and 64. The analytical sample was 156,734 person-wave observations from 84,993 unique persons of whom 71,113 had two or more measurement times. Fixed effects regressions were applied to examine how changes in work hours were linked to changes in mental well-being within each individual over time. This study found that even a small number of working hours (between one and 8 h a week) generates significant mental health and well-being benefits for previously unemployed or economically inactive individuals. The findings suggest there is no single optimum number of working hours at which well-being and mental health are at their highest - for most groups of workers there was little variation in wellbeing between the lowest (1-8 h) through to the highest (44-48 h) category of working hours. These findings provide important and timely empirical evidence for future of work planning, shorter working week policies and have implications for theorising the future models of organising work in society.
3) on calibre (another epub reader for windows) it didn't crash but the text is not appearing because Calibre uses dark mode (black background) and the font color generated by indesign is black...
At this step, I just hope my readers don't use any epub reader on windows and continue with Google play book. Then I have some bugs with page break after and before image I cannot reproduce on my file test which I join here.
No crash, the text is automatically white on dark background, each laminar page is on a separate page. So why I don't use this soft instead of Indesign ? Because it doesn't have many options for layout.
For starters, why are you using 2.0? That's an archaic EPUB format. What version of InDesign? Have you had any training at all in this? There's nothing intuitive about it. You need to prepare an InDesign file very precisely and that means styles for everything and a single text flow.
While InDesign can be used, it requires a very careful workflow since InDesign's core architecture is meant for visual (fixed) page layouts, and rather not for reflowable epub layouts. It always feels as if I am swimming against the flow when I format reflowable epubs in InDesign.
Many InDesign features cannot be used, and have to be avoided. It is also not possible to preview the result immediately, or control/inspect the underlying code directly. InDesign's code is also rather fragile, but generally that doesn't pose too many issues. Jutoh has real-time error validation, and even Sigil has a built-in epub code validator. This is important for debugging and with InDesign the user is forced to export an epub and use external validation tools - which is a real workflow breaker.
Another issue is that InDesign hides the underlying content structure of an epub, while Jutoh and Sigil expose it in a sidebar. Not possible in InDesign. And as Bob states, you will have to work in a single text flow, while Jutoh and SIgil allow you to work in separated chapter files, for example, and manage audio, video, and images in folders within the project itself.
Anyway, if a reflowable epub is your output format, at the very least use Sigil to check and validate your InDesign exported epub. Sigil is free. Jutoh is not, but I prefer it over InDesign for this type of job. InDesign is too fragile to work with in my own experience.
I suggest you to use an epub validation tool. There are some online and/or free like epub validator or epubcheck. They might help you by hinting where your troubles are. Besides, a validated epub is a happy publisher
@rayek_elfin : you had right. I watched the course "InDesign CC 2018: EPUB" from Lynda.com (4h35) and I don't learned so much... At the end of the course, I taked the epub from the last exercise files and test it on Calibre, Liberty and some other readers and the same bugs had appeared... So I officially abandon InDesign.
I looked Jutoh, and man, it seems so complicated ! I mean I know I can do stuff with some time but... pff.
Before watch, read, experiment many tutorials / courses on Jutoh I looked if it does all I needed. And... it doesn't export to PDF...
So I did what I should do from the beginning : install Virtuabox to run macOS Sierra on Windows. Why ? Because I installed Vellum and I was able to export epub, pdf, mobi in 15min ! The bugs from InDesign disappear and everything worked nicely ! The major issue with Vellum is : you can't custom things as you want. But the styles incorporated are really beautiful, so why bother too much ?
Before you start to make EPUBs with InDesign, you should learn some basics. Your document is deletantic. There are so many basic errors, you should avoid, not only for EPUBs, but also for simply typesetting:
If you can do an epub file just with InDesign which work with Liberty (page break before or after image in export object make crash it), and without black text on black background on calibre for example, I will be glad to see it.

The EPUB 3 CG shall develop future revisions to, and maintenance of, EPUB 3 and extension modules. In scope are follow-on work from EPUB 3.1 and its constituent elements including EPUB Accessibility, as well as all EPUB 3 extension modules previously developed by IDPF including EPUB for Education profile and EPUB for Education Structural Semantics, EPUB Distributable Objects, Open Annotations in EPUB, EPUB Scriptable Components, EPUB Scriptable Components Packaging and Integration, EPUB Indexes, EPUB Dictionaries and Glossaries, EPUB Multiple-Rendition Publications, EPUB Previews, and EPUB Region-Based Navigation.
The EPUB 3 CG shall also undertake work on ancillary deliverables around EPUB 3 as appropriate, some of which work may be in collaboration with other organizations. In scope initially are EPUBCheck, the EPUB 3 Reading System Test Suite, and the EPUB 3 Samples repository.
Work on any future major revision of EPUB, e.g. an EPUB 4, is initially out of scope on the presumption that this will be taken up by a new W3C WG as a W3C Recommendation Track activity. The EPUB 3 CG will coordinate its work with such new WG, and meanwhile with the existing W3C Digital Publishing Interest Group (DPUB IG).
In order to ensure coordination and involvement of all stakeholders, the EPUB 3 CG will publish specifications, at any stage other than Editors Drafts, only upon receiving the explicit approval of the Publishing BG or its Steering Committee.
Participants should expect to participate in regular (up to weekly frequency) meetings as well as email and other electronic communication and collaboration means. Several hours per week of time commitment is expected to be a minimum for effective participation.
Community Group participants agree to make contributions in the GitHub repo for the project that they are interested in. This may be in the form of a pull request (preferred), by raising an issue, or by adding a comment to an existing issue.
Specifications created for proposals in the Community Group must use the W3C Software and Document License.
All Github repositories attached to the Community Group must contain a copy of the CONTRIBUTING and LICENSE files.
Note: this CG will not use a contrib mailing list for contributions since all contributions will be tracked via Github mechanisms (e.g. pull requests).
The initial Chairs are Rachel Comerford (Macmillan Higher Education) and Dave Cramer (Hachette Livre).
Participants in this group choose their Chair(s) and can replace their Chair(s)at any time using whatever means they prefer, subject to the consent of the W3C Publishing BG.
The Normal Hours are a general set of working hours to be followed in a typical week. This set of hours is applied to every week in the project, thus determining how many hours of effort can be completed in each day. Resources inherit their work week schedules from the project, but you can customize them individually if they work different hours. To set up exceptions to the work week, for events such as half-days, holidays, and overtime, read on.
The green block represents a block of working time. You can drag the edges of the block to set a day and time range; in the above case, the resource is a piece of developer hardware that can be left running 24 hours a day.
Drag or double-click in an empty area to create a new time block, and Shift-drag anywhere to draw a red block that erases working hours. These techniques are useful for breaking up blocks that span several days, so that you can adjust them individually.
The Extra & Off Hours are a calendar of the working hours for specific days. You can set up holidays, half-days, overtime, and other such exceptions to the normal work week. Just like the normal work week, there is a work schedule for the whole project, which the resources follow, but you can also customize resources individually.
