+
+Abstract
+
+ This document serves to register a media type for the Open eBook
+ Publication Structure (OEBPS) Package Files.
+
+1. Introduction
+
+ The present document registers a media type for the Open eBook
+ Publication Structure (OEBPS) Package File (OPF). The OPF file is an
+ XML file that describes an OEBPS Publication [OEBPS]. It identifies
+ all other files in the publication and provides descriptive
+ information about them. OPF and its related standards are maintained
+ and defined by the International Digital Publishing Forum (IDPF).
+
+ The media type defined here is needed to correctly identify OPF files
+ when they are edited on disk, referenced in OEBPS Container files, or
+ used in other places where media types are used.
+
+2. Security Considerations
+
+ The OPF files contain well-formed XML conforming to the XML 1.0
+ specification.
+
+ Clearly, it is possible to author malicious files which, for example,
+ contain malformed data. Most XML parsers protect themselves from
+ such attacks by rigorously enforcing conformance.
+

+
+RFC 4839 Media Type Registrations for OPF April 2007
+
+
+ All processors that read OPF files should rigorously check the size
+ and validity of data retrieved.
+
+ There is no current provision in the OEBPS Package File standard for
+ encryption, signing, or authentication within the file format.
+
+3. IANA Considerations
+
+ IANA has registered the media type application/oebps-package+xml as
+ specified in Section 3.1. The registration uses the template present
+ in [RFC4288].
+
+3.1. Media Type for Downloadable Sounds
+
+ Type name: application
+
+ Subtype name: oebps-package+xml
+
+ Required parameters: none
+
+ Optional parameters: none
+
+ Encoding considerations: OPF files are UTF-8 or UTF-16
+ encoded XML
+
+ Security considerations: none
+
+
+ Interoperability considerations: none
+
+ Published specification: Specification is published by the
+ International Digital Publishing
+ Forum and can be found at
+ http://www.idpf.org/oebps/
+ oebps1.2/download/oeb12-xhtml.htm
+
+ Applications which use this media type:
