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.

Quicktime 7.1.3 not showing the Flash FLV Exporter option.

I have a macbook with FCP 5.1.2, Quicktime 7.1.3 and Flash Pro 8 installed.
The same as with my G5, but different release of FCP (FCP 4.5 HD in G5)
On my G5 all is fine. I see the FLV export plug in.
The problem is in my Macbook : I can't see the FLV export plug option in Quicktime (export) nor in FCP (file>export>via Qt conversion).
I've made the same installation process in both machines.
Perhaps a problem with the Flash 8 Professional installation on Intel Macs ?
(That installation was well finished)
Anyway, I can encode with the FLV standalone encoder that comes with Flash 8 pro, but sometimes the plug in is a shortcut way to get a FLV file on the fly.
Could anyone help me to resolve that situation ?
Many thanks in advance. I always got a solution from you Guys!
Daniel

QuickTimeKirk, thanks for the reply.
Yes, I think as you that the problem is from FLV exporter from Flash 8. It is not Universal. I will not go backward with QT. I prefer to wait until the UB Flash 8 Pro see the light..... or Flash Pro 9 (for sure it will be Universal)
Thanks again !

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

Thank you Uwe,
I look and hold you aware of your solution in an environment EPUB

@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…

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).

2013 Custom Web Parts in Page Layouts not showing for users

Custom Web Parts in Page Layouts not showing for users
I have created a master page in the root site collection for a subsite I am developing. I created content types and custom page layouts for the pages within the subsite.
I used the snippet tool in the design manager to create web parts and page field markup which I copied into the custom layout HTML pages in the root site collection. For instance I have an image viewer web part that I place there to serve as a section title.
The problem is that I can see all these customer layout page parts no problem but my users cannot. This leads me to believe its permissions, I am site owner of both the subsite and root site collection.
The users that cannot see the web parts are site members of the site and restricted read users on the root site collection (where the layouts are stored).
What gives I'm finding it hard to understand why a snipet generated web part wouldn't show in all pages created from that layout page.
Any help would be appreciated, Havent found anything on this issue online. weird.

It is a permission issue indeed. Fix is simple, make sure you check out the page layout page, then check it back in as published version.

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,

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.

Traffic not showing in Notifications IOS 7. I have all turned on in notifications and location services allowed in Maps. I have been all over internet, followed set up instructions, even re-set settings (fixed weather not showing) but still no traffic?

I should clarify: I didn't know it fell out, but I check my phone often enough that there were only about 10 minutes between when I last put it in my pocket and then realized it wasn't there.
We asked everyone around us if they saw it, and like 10 people were helping us look. But my husband used Find My iPhone and the Prey app right away when we realized it was missing (again, at most 15 minutes from the last time I used it) and it was already in offline / "cannot locate" mode.

Indesign CC 2014 Fixed-Layout Epub exported great for iBooks. Can I do the same for Kindle?

I have read a lot about being able to edit the Epub code in a Fixed-Layout Indesign CC exported Epub. This Epub works great in IBooks. What I read said I could clean up the
code so it works for Kindle. But I can't figure out what code needs to be cleaned out. How can I export it correctly or clean it up?
Hope someone here knows,
Thanks for the help in advance,
Janis

Monica,
Thanks for your response.
I tried again as you suggested.
I exported a Fixed Layout ePub (exported size ~29mb) and tried to load it on an Mac, iPad and iPhone 5s. The results are inconsistent. On the Mac, I received a message that the file was corrupt. On the iPad, the file did eventually load (the quality of the output is another discussion - sneak preview, it's not as good as Circular Flo. Lots of weird stuff). On the iPhone 5s, iBooks is still spinning and has been for about 10 minutes.

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.

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.

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?
R

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?
