    Hi, I'm trying to create my first ePub eBook and I seem to be falling at the first hurdle. I'm using CS4.

    I have all the text in Paragraph and Character Styles and I'm using OpenType fonts and I just can't get a sans-serif font to export properly – I've tried Helvetica, Trebuchet, Arial – they all turn up in the eReader (Adobe Digital Editions) as some serif font I can't identify.

    On Item Info in ADE I get Error E_PKG_ENCRYPTION_XML_NO_RESOURCE

    Also when I export a long document of a few thousand words the ePub doc finishes half way through – I'm hoping this may not be the case once I have split the document up into smaller chapters. But I've isolated one page and I still can't get this font and error issue sorted out.

    Any ideas
    ?

    I believe Adobe's epubs almost always give that error when you embed fonts. Frustrating. The whole font embedding thing is a major problem in epubs anyway, as most readers don't honor them.

    Hi David, Thanks for the comment. I've actually found out the font works out OK when I view the eBook in the Calibre eBook reader. Know that I know this I can test it in Adobe Digital Editions and Calibre as I go along and try to make it look passable in both! Cheers.

    Hi,

    About fonts. You can delete the encryption xml file after exporting and than replace the encrypted fonts with the original ones. That is a way to bypass the encrytion error you get with validating. A way to do that is to use Oxygen XML. Works great.

    As far as i know, Threepress Consulting is busy to update the validation check, so that it will not be an error in the future.
