I have tried to search the forum, but couldn't find a thread that had answers to my question.
The line numbers essential for the intended use in school.
I would deeply appreciate any advice on this subject. |

ssame issue will of course apply to " page"
both line and page make not a lot of sense on an e-reader where everything can be scaled up or down by each user

Paragraph numbers would be a more sensible option than line or page numbers.
The calibre viewer will display them if the Reference mode button is pressed, see attachment.
I am not aware of any way to get paragraph numbers injected into the epub itself, but that doesn't mean there isn't a way.
