Document parsing & data extraction pipeline

Inspects, parses, and converts open publishing and scheduling formats conforming to IDPF EPUB 3.2 / 3.3 specifications, IETF RFC 5545 (iCalendar - .ics), and RFC 6350 (vCard v4.0 - .vcf). EPUB tools unpack the OCF (Open Container Format) ZIP package, parsing META-INF/container.xml and the OPF (Open Packaging Format) package document to extract Dublin Core metadata (dc:title, dc:creator, dc:identifier), spine order, manifest items, and table of contents (NCX / Nav doc), converting chapters to Markdown.

Worked document extraction example

Scenario: Execute EPUB Book Metadata & TOC Inspector with sample data to verify transformation accuracy and output formatting.

Sample input:

Download /examples/publication-example.epub

Processing: After the page loads, processing runs locally in a Worker without uploading the file. Cancel or clear stops the task.

Illustrative output:

{ "titles": [ "A & B" ], "creators": [ "作者" ], "isbn": [ "9780000000002" ] }

File size & structure constraints

EPUB input must be strictly smaller than 100,000,000 bytes. Limits: 100,000 ZIP entries; 16 MiB per XML; 64 MiB per other selected part; 128 MiB selected data; XML depth 128 and 1,000,000 nodes; 64 MiB text output; 30 seconds including file reading. Very complex ODT repetition can reach the output budget earlier. Encrypted selected content, external reading resources, DTDs and non-XHTML spine items are rejected. Only the first rendition is read; this is not a conformance validator or a native reading application. Preview pages contain 16,000 characters. Downloads are complete. JSON keys, package paths and original metadata are technical/source values, not interface translations. Picture ZIPs support at most 65,535 files.
