KFX format is an exception to that rule. Page numbers are optional, but if they are present for a book, the page numbers in KFX are contained within the main file.

See the documentation of the KFX Output plugin.

Page numbers contained in an NCX pageList, NAV page-list, or page-map.xml within the source EPUB will be converted. (The CLI must be used to preserve pages from a NAV page-list since calibre discards that during conversion.) Amazon APNX is not supported as a page number source.

An option is available to create approximate page numbers in cases where page numbers are not present in the source format. The lookup name of a custom column holding the desired number of pages for each book may be specified, otherwise the page count will be determined automatically from the amount of book content.
