I've run into an issue with InD 16.0 (2021). A recent epub has exported with both English:US and Arabic in the OPF causing display and backward flow issues on Net Galley. (It displays fine on iBooks and the Kindle Previewer.) I get no validation issues. It was brought to our attention by Net Galley:
We received an email today from a NetGalley member using the NetGalley Shelf app and she reported:
Here is a screen shot of the line in the OPF:
I have since removed the line for Arabic (ar-SA) and rezipped the epub. It tests and displays fine/valid. It'll be resubmitted to Net Galley and I hope to hear back.
Note: I did check the InDesign file for language in the file prefs and all the style sheets and English:US is selected everywhere. It's using Berkeley Oldstyle OTF, a font I used on a previous ebook just a week or two before, with the SAME stylesheets, and it doesn't have the Arabic language line in the OPF. I believe it was from the same version of InDesign, but could possibly have been one update back?
Really unsure why it would have done this. One more thing we have to check everytime we export, or is this a new bug?
Have something to add?
