Thanks so much for the insight.

You also seem to suggest that it is important to exactly duplicate Sony's LRF rendering algorithm *before* applying any pre-pagination. Assuming we know what the pre-pagination algorithm alone involves (do we?), what would happen if we simply apply pre-pagination to the calibre's LRF output?

In other words, what do you hypothesize will happen if we skip Sony's LRF re-rendering step?

Is the problem one of reverse-engineering, namely that we don't know what Sony's pagination algorithm involves, and that it's hard to diff calibre's LRF output with Sony's LRF output (with pagination) because there are too many things changing (i.e., Sony's rendering changes, plus pagination changes)?

(Or did I miss a concept?)

Thanks,
