Can you actually share the full .EPUB file, or do they object to the expanded size with bundled fonts and formatting, resulting in identical HTML but otherwise different content in the ZIP?

It hasn’t happened before but never say never. What we do do though sometimes is contribute our own transcriptions to Gutenberg first, then use that as a base for the Standard Ebooks version.
