E-mail to Elizabeth Castro

I did another thing last night, while also writing to David Blatner (see post below), and that was to write to Liz Castro with the same question.

So far, I have not heard from her, but in fairness it has only been a day (not even that).

The point that I am trying to make is that at this point in time, now 4.45 in the afternoon on a day when I took the whole day off to get my ePub sorted, I have reached the point where I don't know where else to turn to.

I have done the following:

  • googled and googled for the best info about making ePubs (most seem to focus on nothing past export – and that, I can do already)
  • I have bought EPUB: straight to the point, the bible on ePubs
  • I have read it, and followed the instructions
  • written to David Blatner and Elizabeth Castro
  • left posts on Indesign Secrets and Springy asking for help

and yet I still can't seem to get this to work. I don't really see what else I can do.

I know that Castro mentions several ePub fora, networks etc in her book, but they seem to be concerned with complicated things like adding video to ePubs – when I can't seem to get past the supposedly straight forward thing of a working, edited ePub.

It's not like I am a complete novice when it comes to computers, Macs, Indesign, Dreamweaver, HTML, XHTML, CSS and the like.

Arrgh!
