Import DOCX with control
Headings, chapters and unusual structures are shown before import. The original file remains unchanged.
METHOD & EVIDENCE
How epubio checks a book — and where it deliberately stops.
Technical quality is more than a green symbol. This page explains the checks behind each result, the standards used and the external requirements that remain authoritative.

EPUBIO
Traceable rather than mysterious
epubio does not wait for the final export. DOCX structure and chapters are made visible during import; book details, cover, design and edition requirements are reviewed before EPUB and print.
Generated EPUB files are technically validated with EPUBCheck. Print preparation uses the selected book state and print profile; the printer's final specification remains authoritative.
Validate the file
The generated EPUB is checked with EPUBCheck. Relevant findings are translated into a reason and next action.
Connect interior and cover
Format, extent, paper, spine and cover are treated as one print edition. Provider values must be confirmed.
Understand the effect of changes
When manuscript, cover, metadata or print profile changes, affected editions and approvals are marked.

Notice
A point needs attention or a deliberate decision but may not block the edition.
Blocker
A required value or technical prerequisite is missing. epubio links to the appropriate action.
No acceptance guarantee
Stores and printers may apply additional or changed requirements. Their current decision cannot be guaranteed by epubio.
