Editing Epub in Dreamweaver when Zipping and Unzipping Won't Work

[janeller316]

Hi,

I'm trying to edit an ePub from InDesign in Dreamweaver (I know it can be done in other software, but I want to learn how to do it in Dreamweaver, as well). I exported the ID book to ePub. I changed the extension to zip. Then I tried unzipping it and it just gave me another ePub, no xhtml files or anything. I'm on a Mac. Everything is up-to-date. Any idea why I can't access the individual chapters/files that make up the ePub and any idea how I can get them?

What's the file extension of files that you are trying to open in Dreamweaver?

[janeller316]

.epub. I've tried zipping it, but when I go to unzip it to access the individual files that make up the epub, it just gives me the epub without letting me access the chapters (which should be xhtml files).

Just to be sure, can you post on the InDesign forum as well?

Sure.
