+    - title: "When creating ZIP/EPUB files encode all file names in UTF-8 and set the UTF-8 bit marker. When extracting from a ZIP/EPUB file, if the UTF-8 bit marker is not set, still assume that the file name is encoded in UTF-8. If UTF-8 decoding fails try to detect character encoding using chardet. This is because most ZIP/EPUB files calibre comes across seem to be utf-8 encoded."
