Hi guys. I’ve searched the net for some time now trying to figure out the TOC, but I can’t find the information I need. I have both a toc.ncx file and a toc in the metadata.opf file. My questions are as follows:

• Which of theme are actually used by the e-reader(s), and how?
• Do all platforms use them the same way?
• Do they have to be identical?
• Can I have a page in the book that is not listed in the TOC?

And on a side note:

• Can I force a chapter to always start on the right page in landscape mode (with a blank page on the left)?

Hopefully someone can help me out.
