Reference non-linear resources outside of the spine
HadrienGardeur opened this issue · comments
In EPUB, various spine items can be declared as non-linear.
As a concept, linearity is very vague and can be handled in a number of ways by reading systems, but most of them simply skip non-linear items.
To avoid this pitfall, the Web Publication Manifest and the in-memory model will not consider non-linear resources to be part of the spine.
This means that the parser should verify each <itemref>
in the spine:
<itemref idref="c1-answerkey" linear="no"/>
If an <itemref>
includes a linear
attribute set to "no", the resource should be added to resources
. Otherwise, the resource should be added to spine
.
