Booktype and Transifex

Published on January 24, 2014.

This week I worked in the portuguese translation of Open Education Handbook. In this post I cover the problem that we have using Booktype and Transifex for the translation.

Every book in Booktype can be export as a zip archive following the steps in Booktype manual. The problem that we have is related on how Booktype named the chapter files in the zip archive.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Create a book in Booktype.
