CC 2014 export to epub Fixed Layout Table Of Contents Question

I have an .indd which I exported to an epub 3.0
looks fine except there is a table of contents in the .indd and it does NOT work in the Epub.
I see a tuts for adding a navigation TOC in an EPub 2.0 doc but I need to have the TOC from the .indd as a linked / working TOC.
Any help here?

Ok just to add a little here so the problems I'm having are in ONE post.
The document was not made by me, I needed to go from .indd to Epub Fixed.
AS mentioned the TOC was ALREADY in the .indd as well as hyperlinks thru the document.
When I go to export as EPub Fixed I chose the TOC style ( I know there are a few options for this here like removing the original TOC and replacing with a new OR just using a navigation TOC which would be seen using an Apple Reader THAT WORKS
But, TWO things are problems, when exporting to fixed NONE generated TOC's work, new generated and original ( which I left in there just to see)
and second, ALL the hyperlinks that were working in the pdf before do NOT work in the Fixed Layout BUT I did do a flowing text export and in that those hyperlinks only WORK in the re flowable.
Any help here?

Arabic punctuation when exporting to ePUB fixed layout

Hello,
I'm using InDesign CC6 ME and on it my document looks just fine.
Once I try export to ePUB 3.0 fixed layout, my end-of-paragraph punctuation shows up at the beginning of the last line instead of at the end.
Please keep in mind that since this is an Arabic text, the punctuation at the end of the line has to be at the far left which is not what I'm getting.
I hope I can find some help with this.

Hi Sania:
Pooja is absolutely correct.
There are a variety of limitations at this point in Roman/J/ME which we have been working to improve with our aim being that update-to-update to InDesign CC for both Reflowable and Fixed Layout we keep getting better. We've been focusing on Roman first and have had our hands full with that.
The team as benefited immensely by being able to work with real customer customer document - would you be willing to share some of yours with us? We only use them for our own internal testing and do not share them outside of Adobe (and typically only the team). It makes a big difference to us.
If so, please contact Pooja directly at [email protected] and she will make arrangements for receiving them. Typically we just need you to package the document (or a subset of it, whatever you feel comfortable with) so we get the necessary assets and fonts.
Help us make this better.

InDesign CC ePub Fixed Layout not showing up as an Export option

I am trying to export an ePub Fixed Layout, but when I go to Export, I only have the ePub option - No Fixed Layout. I have updated to the latest version on Cloud and have restarted my computer. Any solutions?

What operating system are you running? If you're running Mac OS X 10.6, you will not be able to download the latest version which is InDesign CC 2014. That is required for ePub Fixed Layout.

Epub fixed layout option missing

Hi there,
I'm trying to create a digital version of a magazine I current produce for print. I'd like to export it as a fixed layout epub but when I click on 'Export' I'm not offered the epub fixed layout as an option simply 'epub'. When I export using this all of my images and text appear all over the place. I'm using InDesign CC 9.2.1 on a Mac. Am I missing some vital step?
Many thanks in advance for any advice offered.

I've moved your question to the InDesign EPUB forum.
You need to upgrade to InDesign CC 2014.1 (October 2014) release. You can do this from the Creative Cloud app unless you're running an incompatible OS version, for example, Mac OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard).

How to view EPUB fixed layout on Ipad

Hello All,
I am new to the EPUB world - migrating from DPS folios. I just want to view my EPUB fixed layout on the IPAD and need some assistance in making it happen. Thanks.

Export to EPUB and load the EPUB on iPad. You can use Dropbox for this.
Open it in iBooks.

Scrollable Frame solution for EPUB Fixed Layout

Hi,
I have found a solution (or, rather a hack) which allows us to create scrolling frames for EPUB Fixed Layouts.
You can find the exported EPUB, as well as my InDesign file on my Dropbox: EPUB scroll.
This solution has some weak points and has only been tested in iBooks on an iPad with iOS 8, but here's how it works:
Create two text frames (one as big as your text requires, and one which will be the container [tip: make the container a bit wider than the text frame])
Cut the big text frame, select the smaller container frame, and Edit->Paste into
Right click on the container, select Object Export Options, choose EPUB and HTML and enter "subchapter" as epub:type:
Open a text editor and create a new CSS file. For CSS code, see below
Export as Fixed layout EPUB. In the export dialog box, select the CSS tab and add the previously created CSS file
Done!
CSS code:
div[*|type = "subchapter"] {
position: relative;
div[*|type = "subchapter"] > div {
overflow: auto;
As you see, steps 1 and 2 are essentialy the same as for creating a scrollable frame folio overlay.
It’s not perfect, and this solution is just a proof-of-concept, but it should get you going.
An obvious problem is that we use basic HTML scrollbar, which is not being displayed in e-book readers such as iBooks on the iPad. Hence, the user has now idea how long the scrollable content stretches. This could probably be solved with a more complex, JS-based solution.
Also, the gradient feather at the bottom (which is intended to create a "fade-out effect) seems not to export well. This one should be easy to solve, placing another rectangle with a gradient in it. But I’m not sure if transparency exports well, and haven’t tested it.
Feel free to use, and improve, this hack!
Thanks,
/Jacob

@Papo – then I would suggest not a scrollable frame, but an MSO you can click through showing the whole text.
1. Do some text frames the same size
2. Thread all the text frames to one story
3. Align the text frames
4. Make a MSO out of it:
The text frames are still threaded and text can easily flow between them.
5. Do some navigation buttons to control the MSO states:
"Go To First State", "Go To Next State", "Go To Previous State" etc.
Later you can change the text (add or remove, do different formatting) flowing in that story through the states.
A very flexible solution. Ok, it's not a scrollable frame, but something like that…

Space disappears before and after numbers during epub fixed layout conversion

Created .indd file using InDesign CC 2014 and converted to epub fixed layout format. Everything is correctly converted -- EXCEPT that every number (date, address, single number in text) is stripped of its space before and after. The indesign file is correct and spaces are all present correctly. Any thoughts? Could it have to do with fonts (using open type features such as contextual alternates with Figure style set to Proportional Oldstyle)? Quick help would be appreciated -- on a deadline as usual!
Thanks,
Kate

Export photos to Fixed Layout Epub problem

When I try to export an inDesign file to a fixed layout ePub3 format every photo brightens a little in mid-shadow areas. All my images are in sRGB color space. Does anyone know why this is happening?
Thanks.

This may not be a good test, but I took the picture you posted (the one from Indesign) and tested it and don't see a lot of difference. First Indesign, second ibooks. Is your monitor calibrated? What type is it?

Epub Fixed Layout

I am using CC and I want to export my indesign project to a fixed layout epub. When I go to export I am only given the option to export to a regular epub and not a fixed layout epub. How will I be able to export this as a fixed layout?

I've moved your post to the InDesign EPUB forum
You have to download and install InDesign CC2014.2. Check your CC desktop app for it. It will be there as long as your operating system supports it.

How to update alt layout tables of contents

I'm having trouble with alternate layouts and tables of contents.
After creating a 6 page document, I created an alternate layout. The content from the primary document was linked to the new layout.
Some modifications were made to the alternate layout, which involved positioning some paragraph styles onto a different page.
When the alternate layout was exported as an interactive PDF, the table of contents indicated it was hyperlinked because the mouse cursor would change to a hand when hovering over the respective table of contents entry, however when clicked, the PDF simply remained on the same page.
As one potential solution, I created an additional table of contents and made certain to use the heading styles that were relevant to the alternate layout.
When I would generate a new table of contents for the alternate layout, only the table of contents title appeared and no additional paragraph styles were included in the table of contents.
Is there a special way that I need to get the table of contents to work properly using an alternate layout.
I am a Lynda.com subscriber, so please feel free to refer me to a video that may answer my questions.
I have been looking through the Adobe help, and if the answer to my question is there, I'm overlooking it because I'm overwhelmed with information (and possibly the stress of the print deadline which is later today).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Buck

I am doing my final project. It uses the publish-subscribe mechanism. Publishers publish the messages and subscribers can get the messages by subscribing the topic they am interested in. When the subscriber get the messages , I built a java swing application to simulate a public screen to display these messages. That means this swing application is not interactive to the user. The swing window is just for displaying the information.( Imagine in the airport hall, you can look at the flight informaiton on the public screen).
What I want to achieve is that the swing window can automatically repeatedly display the messages. If the amount of messages is too much to display only one page, how it can be implemented to alternatively display multi-pages in one window? Scrollpanel is not useful for this aim. I think maybe I can use java.swing.timer. But this is the first time I try to use it. Some ideas?
I hope this is clear now.

Glyphs alignment should change while export file to epub, any solution for perfect export in fixed layout

Hi,
Are your documents in the book of different page sizes? Have you done any edits to page size using Page tool and not using Document set up dialog?
We honor only the document set up dialog changes and not the changes made to page size using page tool so this could be one of the reason for things going wrong.
It would be really nice if you could share your document on dropbox may be and share the link with me at: [email protected] This way it would be easy for me to investigate and tell you why this issue is happening.

Javascript(s) inserted into an ePub fixed layout file

Hi,
I'm searching all information on this question.
Thanks in advance!

I am also interested in this topic. I see only this in the InDesign Help document under EPUB export:
Specify the URL of an existing JavaScript. InDesign does not check whether the JavaScript exists or is valid, so you’ll want to confirm your JavaScript setup.
I would like to include a simple game made in javascript (from a premade script) and insert it on a page in an ePub. I haven't found any clues as to how that might be done.
Adobe likes to tantalize ...
