Eliot,
Great news. It's impressive that you can process such a large document.
When you have a copy posted, I'd like to try it out.
I am a bit confused about your comment about ZIP compression. An epub
file is itself a zip file, and the only uncompressed part is the
mimetype file, so I'm not sure what you mean about epub not allowing zip
compression.
Best Regards,
Dick Hamilton
