More problems with my EPUB
Dear All,
I was advised to start again with a new isbn by a fabulous support team member (Paul) after the previous issue with the author info which had to be changed but couldn't be. So I did, and got rid of the "(ed.)" from the metadata. Now a new issue has been identified as below. So again I have asked for help. I don't want to put the foreword writer in the metadata, but I can easily erase him from the cover. This ePub is sure having a difficult birth!
Best Regards,
Ian

Please advise what I should do. If I take the name of the foreword writer off the image which I have supplied for the cover, will you accept this?
Yours sincerely

Yes.
If foreword writer is on the cover, he must be in the metadata.
If he's not on the cover, and not in the metadata, your book will be accepted.
Ian, ebooks make their own toc based on the heading styles you assign. You could leave your own toc for show or remove it altogether.
You could also generate an html toc in an epub editor. May work on some devices, but not really necessary.
