Nimas validator PDF checking #340

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
Change the way PDFs are handled.

1. PDFs must not be present in the manifest. We should report an error if they 
are.

2. However, it is required by NIMAS that they be present. We need a strategy 
for this. It could be something like checking the publication root folder to 
see if it contains a PDF.

Note that the user's report that PDFs must not be present is contradicted by 
this:

(scoll to section "MIME")

Update: the spine must not contain a PDF reference but the manifest should have 
one.

Todo: check that the spine does not contain a PDF reference.

This is already the behavior. Here is the error report when the spine contains 
a PDF reference:

"Manifest item referenced by itemref in spine is not a SMIL file."
