Total Downloads of EpubCheck 4.2.4

This is a production-ready release of EPUBCheck, which provides complete support for checking conformance to the EPUB 3.2 family of specifications.

Version 4.2.4 is a patch release to the recently-released version 4.2.3. It brings the HTML schemas in sync with the latest changes to the ARIA in HTML specification. This fixes an issue that caused a couple DPUB ARIA roles (doc-glossary and doc-dedication) to be incorrectly rejected on some HTML elements.

This release was made by the DAISY Consortium, for the W3C. Thanks to everyone who noticed the issue, and to @mattgarrish who quickly submitted pull requests to both EPUBCheck and the HTML checker!

This EPUBCheck version is also available in the Maven Central Repository as org.w3c:epubcheck:4.2.4.

Tip: If you are running EPUBCheck on a 32bit JVM and it crashes and reports a StackOverflowError, try to increase the Java Thread Stack Size!
