MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - iPad Which difference does it make whether I use NCX-pageList or not?

I used the tag "iPad" to make clear that I'm asking with respect to the iPad (and its ibook-application): Is the iPad (with ibooks) one of the devices that makes use of pageList or not? And if so, how?

What do you mean with "include them"? Do you have a reference for this "best practice"?

(I ask because Apple seems to be strict and doesn't accept EPUBs with hard-coded page numbers ("included") for its ibookStore and recommends to use NCX pagelist, instead. And I just cannot see why I should make the effort.)
