What ePub page/position calculation methods are there?
Hey guys,
I'm building an ePub reader, and I need to calculate and display the user's position inside of that ePub. However, ePub section/chapter size/word per page and and styling vary, which makes this a bit more difficult than I'd like.
I'm using a web-based solution, and since my implementation is page-oriented, I know what page a user is in, but only inside that section/chapter. Displaying all sections and calculating full number of pages and current page constantly uses too much memory. I was considering simply going with "Chapter X, Page X/X", but then this made me consider what other methods have been employed, or are recommended for letting the user know where they are in a book.
Thanks for any advice!
