Hi,
there is one reason why I always use epubs instead of kepubs: I can't stand page numbers that depend on the font size. They don't tell me anything. I want to be able to compare the size of different books depending on their total page numbers. For that, I need a consistent way of page numbering.

So far, I always thought this is only possible in epubs but not in kepubs ... until I stumbled over this:

-- link removed --

"Page numbers show the number of page turns remaining in the current chapter instead of the estimated number of pages for the entire book. (If you don't want this, there is an option in the driver settings to force full-book page numbers.)"

But I can't find this option. There are no driver settings on my reader, nor are there any options regarding page numbers in the kobo plugin settings for Calibre (KoboTouch and KoboTouchExtended).

Does anybody know what settings they could be talking about or of any other way how to enforce proper page numbering in kepubs?

Thanks a lot for any help!

EDIT: Ah, darn, I was just blind!

The option is right here:

Calibre -> Plugins -> KoboTouchExtended Options -> Extended Tab -> Use full book page numbers

EDIT2: Alas, it doesn't work. At first, the font settings disappeared (font size etc.), but the total page number was the same as with the epub of the same book. When I switched to another book, the font settings reappeared, but the page numbers were back to kepub default (no longer stable but depending on the font). This remained that way when I switched back to the original book.

Too bad, back to epub for me, can't use kepub that way. Kobo should really make this a proper option.
