Section 6.1.2 of EPUB 3.3 spec:
An XHTML content document:
MUST be an [html] document that conforms to the XML syntax.
Referenced section in HTML spec (14 The XML syntax) shows this warning:
Using the XML syntax is not recommended, for reasons which include the fact that there is no specification which defines the rules for how an XML parser must map a string of bytes or characters into a Document object, as well as the fact that the XML syntax is essentially unmaintained — in that, it’s not expected that any further features will ever be added to the XML syntax (even when such features have been added to the HTML syntax).

By default TApache ika uses OCR of images on text extraction if Tesseract is installed. This can be disabled in the tika.xml config file:

Location of config file can be given as argument:
https://tika.apache.org/1.9/configuring.html#Using_a_Tika_Configuration_XML_file
So to make this work we create a file "tika-config.xml" with the following content:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<properties>
<parsers>
<parser class="org.apache.tika.parser.DefaultParser">
<parser-exclude class="org.apache.tika.parser.ocr.TesseractOCRParser"/>
</parser>
</parsers>
</properties>
Then in Tika use the --config option to set the path to this file:
java -jar ~/tika/tika-app-2.6.0.jar --config=tika-config.xml -t whatever.epub > whatever.txt
Alternative option is to uninstall Tesseract.

This article charts a fresh history of the development of digital pagination through a revisionist interrogation of three interrelated phenomena: 1. That digital pages do not behave as do their physical correlates but instead mimic earlier historical forms of print that fused pagination, scrolling, and the tablet form. 2. That the development of PDF was almost abandoned by Adobe’s board of directors, who could see no audience for it. 3. That there are other more robust lineages of constraint for digital pages from cinema and television.

- In VM Settings, go to USB
- Click "Adds new USB filter, fields set to values of selected USB device attached to the host PC"
- Select floppy drive from list
Floppy drive is now available in guest VM after starting it up. Note: in my case it as automatically mapped to the A:\ drive.
There's NO need to set up anything in the Storage settings (Floppy controller there only works for virtual floppies!).
This also works for any other USB storage devices (e.g. thumbdrives).
When forensic write blocker (Tableau T8u USB 3.0 Bridge) is placed between host PC and floppy drive, watch out for the following:
- Write blocker must be added as separate device (so add new USB filter as described above)
- For some reason VM crashes if write blocker is enabled on startup. Workaround: disable (deselect) write blocker in VM settings, start up the VM, then select device from list of USB devices (USB icon at bottom ogf VM window)
- In this case the device is not mapped to A: (apparently Windows doesn't see it's a floppy drive), but some other drive (e.g. E:)
- Related to the above, the mediaType and deviceType values as described here will be less specific (

"When you add more files in a subsequent session, a complete new file system is written for the new session, but it can include references to files recorded in the previous session; this is known as linked multisession."
History:
Official recommendation is to use folder in home directory (see https://askubuntu.com/questions/1092742/where-should-i-put-appimages-files), but since homedir on home PC is on slow HD whereas OS + all other software is on fast SDD, I created a directory under root:
/Applications/
Then move AppImage files there.

Update: this didn't quite work, but a workaround is to enter the location of the temp dir (/tmp/Bless) directly in Bless' user interface as a text string (so don't use the file navigation widgets!).

After attaching a large external HD + including it in the backup scheme, deja-dup eats up all space of main HD. Cause: deja-dup writes some metadata and manifest files to home dir at:
~/.cache/deja-dup/
These files become very large (here: > 18 GB) which results in running out of disk space. Apparently causes problems for lots of deja-dup users, e.g. here, here. This post suggests to solve this by creating a symlink to ~/.cache/deja-dup/ on another disk with sufficient space:
mkdir /media/johan/BAKWA/.deja-dup-cache
mv ~/.cache/deja-dup/* /media/johan/BAKWA/.deja-dup-cache/
rmdir ~/.cache/deja-dup
ln -sf /media/johan/BAKWA/.deja-dup-cache ~/.cache/deja-dup
UPDATE: doesn't work, files are still written to home dir!! Interim solution: exclude external drive from deja-dup backup scheme, and back it up manually with rsync (no incremental backup though!).
List partitions:
df -h
Result:
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
udev 3,9G 0 3,9G 0% /dev
tmpfs 789M 9,5M 780M 2% /run
/dev/sda1 227G 202G 14G 94% /
tmpfs 3,9G 34M 3,9G 1% /dev/shm

tmpfs 789M 32K 789M 1% /run/user/1000
/dev/sdb1 1,9T 144M 1,9T 1% /media/johan/Elements4
So in this case we need to format /dev/sdb1. Unmount the disk:
sudo umount /dev/sdb1
Format as ext4:
sudo mkfs.ext4 /dev/sdb1

- If we leave out
--span-hostsexternal stylesheets etc. are ignored, even if--page-requisitesis used (don't want that)! - If we include
--span-hostsexternally referenced pages/sites are scraped as well (don't want that either!)
See also https://gist.github.com/dannguyen/03a10e850656577cfb57
Better approach:
-
Scrape one single page:
wget --page-requisites --span-hosts --convert-links --adjust-extension -w 5 --random-wait http://blog.kbresearch.nl/2015/07/07/why-pdfa-validation-matters-even-if-you-dont-have-pdfa/ >>$logFile 2>&1
This gives us the domains used for individual page resources, which we can subsequently feed into --domains. After some fiddling (we don't want to harvest +60 gravatar subdomains) this looks reasonable:
#!/bin/bash
url=http://blog.kbresearch.nl
domains=blog.kbresearch.nl,wp.com,researchkb.files.wordpress.com,googleapis.com,gstatic.com
logFile=wget.log
wget --mirror --page-requisites --span-hosts --convert-links --adjust-extension -w 5 --random-wait --domains=$domains $url >>$logFile 2>&1

--try-again Mark all non-trimmed and non-scraped blocks inside the rescue domain as non-tried before beginning the rescue. Try this if the drive stops responding and ddrescue immediately starts scraping failed blocks when restarted. If '--retrim' is also specified, mark all failed blocks inside the rescue domain as non-tried.
Useful if ddrescue remains stuck endlessly in "scraping failed blocks".

Kaitai Struct is a declarative language used for describe various binary data structures, laid out in files or in memory (...).
The main idea is that a particular format is described in Kaitai Struct language (.ksy file) and then can be compiled with ksc into source files in one of the supported programming languages. These modules will include a generated code for a parser that can read described data structure from a file / stream and give access to it in a nice, easy-to-comprehend API.

the sector numbers in the file system refer to sectors of the original CD rather than sectors of session2.iso. I don't know of a utility for rewriting them so that the file can be loop-mounted or written to an ordinary CD, but you can at least get a directory listing by using isoinfo with an offset:
isoinfo -i session2.iso -N 204345 -l
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libcdio-devel/2010-02/msg00048.html
Esp.:
Remember, the path table and directory structure of the iso reflect the fact that the ISO filesystem starts on sector 222145 (49:23:70) of the CD. If it is burned to another CD at a different position, it won't work. Likewise, any program that reads the iso will need to be able to compensate for the offset. Try, for example: isoinfo -N 222145 -d -i '8mm-songs_to_love_and_die_by.iso'
Also (from same thread):
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/libcdio-devel/2010-02/msg00053.html
Default encoding for read/write write depends on locale settings, which can result in unexpected behaviour. See e.g.:
Solution: always set the encoding explicitly when opening a file for read/write in text mode. Example:
# Byte sequence corresponds to multiplication sign in UTF-8
myBytes = b'\xc3\x97'
# Decode to string
myString = myBytes.decode('utf-8')
# Write myString to file
with open("myString.txt", "w", encoding="utf-8") as ms_file:
ms_file.write(myString)
In this case, create link to f:\Pandoc\pandoc.exe in directory c:\bin:

This Windows Batchscript setups a MinGW/GCC compiler environment for building ffmpeg and other media tools under Windows. After building the environment it retrieves and compiles all tools. All tools get static compiled, no external .dlls needed (with some optional exceptions)
https://github.com/jb-alvarado/media-autobuild_suite
By default this doesn't build the ffmpeg optional libraries (incl. cddio). In order to build them, if the batch file prompts you to Choose ffmpeg and mpv optional libraries?, select option 4 (All available external libs). Alternatively (if you accidentally ran the build with the default option), open file media-autobuild_suite.ini and set the value of ffmpegChoice to 4:

The GNU Compact Disc Input and Control library (libcdio) contains a library for CD-ROM and CD image access. Applications wishing to be oblivious of the OS- and device-dependent properties of a CD-ROM or of the specific details of various CD-image formats may benefit from using this library.

Create BIN/TOC file with cdrdao using:
cdrdao read-cd --read-raw --device 1,0,0 --datafile allmy.bin allmy.toc -
Author developed SheepShaver extension that allows these images to be read by emulator
Caveats:
- The given cdrdao command only extracts one session (I guess the Voyager CD-ROMs only contain one session with both the data and audio tracks, although the paper isn't entirely clear about this).
- In case of a CD with multiple sessions one would have to repeat the command for each of those (result: one separate image for each session)
- Hybrid CD-ROMs are not supported by any of the most widely-used emulators (also stressed by author)
Jackson (BL):
On multisession carriers:
While CD-ROM, DVD and HFS+ format disks are reasonably well covered by this approach, there are some important limitations. For example, the optical media formats all support the notion of ‘sessions’ – consecutive additions of tracks to a disk. This means that a given carrier may contain a ‘history’ of different versions of the data. By choosing to extract a single disk image, we only expose the final version of the data track, and any earlier versions, sessions or tracks are ignored. For our purposes, these sessions are not significant, but this may not be true elsewhere.
BUT sessions (at least on commercially manufactured carriers) typically don't contain different versions of the same data, but data that are completely different! Example: many 'enhanced' audio CDs that contain one session with all audio tracks, and another session with a data track. So sessions are significant!
BL workflow for REd Book (audio) and Yellow Book (mixed mode) carriers:
- Image to MDS/MDF format
- Then post-process MDS/MDF file with IsoBuster
But it's not entirely clear if the MDS/MDF can handle multisession carriers?
I found this in the Knowledge Base of the developer of the format:
Image making wizard will always allow the user to create mds/mdf ccd/img/sub.
But ISO format, only for those disc's that contain 1 data track(mode1 or mode2form1).
For cue/bin only for one session disc. if the original disc is a multi-session one, then the cue/bin would not be available and If the user chooses read sub-channel, the cue/bin and iso would be unavailable as well . because iso and cue/bin could not save sub channel data.
So apparently MDS/MDF does support multisession after all!

Suppose I want to create a floppy image containing file oakcdrom.sys:
dd bs=512 count=2880 if=/dev/zero of=oakcd.img
mkfs.msdos oakcd.img
mcopy -i oakcd.img oakcdrom.sys ::/
Inspect contents:
mdir -i oakcd.img
General command:
ddrescue -d -n -b 512 /dev/fd0 myfloppy.img myfloppy.log
To get name of device:
lsblk
Result:
NAME MAJ:MIN RM SIZE RO TYPE MOUNTPOINT
sda 8:0 0 465,8G 0 disk
├─sda1 8:1 0 457,9G 0 part /
├─sda2 8:2 0 1K 0 part
└─sda5 8:5 0 7,9G 0 part [SWAP]
sdb 8:16 0 29,8G 0 disk
sdc 8:32 1 1,4M 1 disk
So in this case it is /dev/sdc. Create the image with:
sudo ddrescue -d -n -b 512 /dev/sdc myfloppy.img myfloppy.log
Optionaly use dosfsck tool to check the integrity of the file system (assuming it is a DOS file system). Use following command:
echo "n" |dosfsck -t -r myfloppy.img
The -t option checks for bad clusters, but this only works in combination with -a (automatically repair) or -r (interactively repair). So to do the check without automatic repair or input from user we use -r and then use a pipe to prevent any changes being made. Result:
fsck.fat 3.0.26 (2014-03-07)

1. Convert all master JP2s to TIFF with ImageMagick, using the command:
mogrify -format tiff *.jp2
2. Conversion loses resolution info (see below), so add new values using:
exiftool *.tiff -xresolution=300 -yresolution=300 -resolutionunit=inches
3. Convert TIFFs to master JP2s:
f:\johan\pythoncode\jpwrappa\jpwrappa\jpwrappa.py M:\Trans\johan\testJP2ContrApp2014\B5\tiff\*.tiff M:\Trans\johan\testJP2ContrApp2014\B5\jp2k\master\ -p F:\johan\pythonCode\jpwrappa\jpwrappa\profiles\optionsKBMasterLossless_2014.xml -m

So "unknown colourspace" is set to "yes", which should be no (and it is "No" in the source JP2). So what is causing this? Bug in Aware software? Does this only happen with Grayscale images?
To reproduce the problem:
- Convert any JP2 to TIFF with ImageMagick (will strip away any resolution info)
- Convert TIFF to JP2 with Aware.
Run jpylyzer on resulting JP2:
