Another thing I forgot to mention is Kobo changed the way page numbers worked with KePub and now they don't work properly. RMSDK has ADE page numbers. I don't like one screen equals one page. It means if you change any settings such as font size, margins, or line height, the page numbers change. They don't change with ADE page numbers. KePub page numbers used to work similarly to ADE page numbers, but no longer.

I find the way the KePub pages work nice. I know I'm the minority, but it feels more normal to have page numbers change with each page flip just like on a printed book. It can also tell me exactly where I am in the book, like for example page 3235 out of 5964.
Some people also like the ePub page numbers more because the page numbers are the same as a printed book so if they want to refer to a certain part of the book, they can just say the page number and it would be the same part of the book on a printed book. However, I don't usually need to refer to a certain part of a book. Even if I do, I would just say for example 'the part where blah blah blah...' And, doesn't each printed book also have several sizes of it? Some books are small and therefore contain more pages, while there is another version of the same book that is bigger and therefore contains lesser pages. So, which version of the printed book is the ePub page numbers following? It can get confusing. Therefore, it's hard to refer to the exact part of the book using page numbers, no matter ePub, KePub or printed.
