HTML errors when creating a Docx file

    I’m trying to get to grips with the plugin before buying the premium version. I’m trying to create an eBook or perhaps a PDF from about 8 different wordpress posts which use links in each post to move to the next post. Ideally I wanted the eBook to be able to similarly link to the relevant post, and I thought that if I created a Word file I could edit the links in the Word document and then create the eBook and PDF. The first time I used the Word export, it failed with errors about the size of the title, which I pasted below. Before I get much further, is this an error that the title of the post is too long? How long can it be?

    <head><title>413 Request Entity Too Large</title></head>

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    Hi @steheap,

    From my experience, EPUB is the best output format. It’s easy to edit after generation, and tools like EPUB Checker and Calibre work well alongside my plugin once the file is created. In contrast, Word format is much more complex, which makes it harder for the plugin to generate a valid file.

    If I’m not mistaken, the error message you’re seeing comes from the content validation service. You’re likely using the “Embed Images” option under the “Design” tab, which can result in a file that’s too large for the third-party validator to handle. To resolve this, you can either disable the “Validate content before download” checkbox or adjust the “Content Images” settings for a different option.

    Best regards,
