fyi - Trying to read the epub file in ibooks and i get this error:

This page contains the following errors:

error on line 1 at column 1: Document is empty error on line 1 at column 1: Encoding error

Update: PDF works, but requires a lot of scrolling on the iphone.

Also, it's a 40 page "book".



Hi,

We'll look into this issue. Which generation iPad do you have?

All Leanpub books include free lifetime updates, so when it's resolved you'll have a free update. (You also get free updates if the author updates the book for any reason, like adding new content, etc. We believe in self-publishing in-progress ebooks, so that you can iterate on your book like you would a startup. We call this idea lean publishing.)

Also, we have an unconditional 100% refund policy, so if you're unhappy for any reason just forward your PayPal receipt to hello@leanpub.com and we'll refund your money.

Thanks!

Peter, Leanpub co-founder


It's actually an iPhone 4S. I just updated to iBooks 2.0.1 and it works! Thanks for the follow up.
