Google Play Books Manuscript Upload as EPUB The Direction Must Not Be Included

I have version 24…the latest vr of writer as of 1/2/25, Trying to upload a book, written in Libre Writer, as a epub to google books to publish. I get the following error listed below. I can upload in PDF no issues!

This “direction” error has been around for a long time through various versions. When will this be fixed? How can we get this done so we can upload epub docs to Google books and Other sites!

OEBPS/styles/stylesheet.css:471, 3: The “direction” property must not be included in an EPUB Style Sheet.

You can file a bug.

Or add yourself to the CC list, 128540 – EPUB export: use (X)HTML markup to set text direction

Maybe this extension works better to convert to epub, WriterToEPUB » Libreoffice Extensions
