I don't know why you would want to, since I'm not you.

As an engineer, I recognize that having a good range of features is very important because everyone has different preferences. With that in mind, I have very little patience for people who advocate less features because it's not something they themselves would use.

Sheesh.

Although I would like to see current chapter on each page I think adding special text for every paragraph is a step too far for me.

Thanks for sharing, though, and credit for your perseverence
No problem. I have macros that create the title/chapter header and run a quick replace throughout the text. The hardest part is often just getting the original ePUB to pass epubcheck!

I would like Sigil or Calibre to add the ability to do headers, but it's problematic since the way I do it only works on the Sony Readers. And the approved ePUB "header" tag (the right way to do it) is currently ignored in almost every thing I've tried ePUB on.
