Can't upload file due to encryption.xml

When I upload my book, I get this error message:  "We have found a file name called encryption.xml within your ePub file container, which means that part of, or all of, your file is encrypted. We do not accept any encryptions within ePub source files. Upon closing this message, please remove the encryption.xml file from your ePub, and you may attempt to upload your ePub file again."

 

I have looked in the files that are included in the epub, but there is none called "encryption.xml."  How do I find it, and how do I eliminate it?

 

The epub file was created with Adobe InDesign, and as far as I know none of it is encrypted.

 

Thanks.

Do you have the book in a Word document saved as .doc? If so, upload that. If not, try to get your book into Word, .doc. and upload it. I don't know what Pubit picked up, but it may be a file that is hidden from view.

Re: Can't upload file due to encryptions

After at lot of frustration I fount a post to not imbed any fonts in the export from InDesign. Under the EPUB Export Options - Contents tab uncheck Includable Embeddible Fonts and it should work.

Re: Can't upload file due to encryption.xml

You could crack open the ePub, unzip it essentially and look in the meta folder and delete the encryption file. Then rezip the ePub, run epub check and you should be good.
