Is the ability to select a specific, tiny area of the screen a function of the reading software then? I always assumed that touches would be handled by either the hardware or possibly the firmware. The difference between epubs and kepubs in this respect is like night and day. Footnotes in epubs are frustratingly impossible for me to use, while kepub footnote links are hassle-free. Just wondering what is behind the two methods.
