Post-Export Styling
After exporting the eBook to ePub format, you can manually edit its content and styling. This is easy to do, because ePub format is
really a zip file. To edit these components, follow these steps:
1. Using a zip compression/decompression tool, extract the contents of the ePub archive to a known location.
2. Apply the required edits to the individual components
3. Re-archive all of the components. The order of the files in the archive matters. In order to comply to the ePub specification, add
the mimetype file first, and make sure that it is not compressed. Next, add the META-INF and the OEBPS directories to an
archive.
4. Make sure that the extension of the archive file is .epub, not .zip.
Note that the XHTML files, chapter list (OPF file) and the CSS stylesheet can be found in OEBPS directory.
Step 4: Metadata
The ePub format supports a number of metadata entries that describe such things as the title and author of the eBook. The InDesign
export tool should automatically export some of these entries, provided that you filled out the data in the File-->Document Info
dialogue and checked "Include Metadata" under the general section of the export tool dialogue. Alternately, you can add your own
metadata manually.
1. Open content.opf
2. Find the <metadata> tag, declare two new namespaces, as follows:
xmlns:dcterms="http://purl.org/dc/terms/"
xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
3. Add the metadata entries into the <metadata> tag, e.g.:
