Rob557 · 10-12-2020, 05:37 PM

Seeking suggestions for how to set up a Calibre "Quality Check" library search to find all books that contain ANY page #s in the table of contents, since I am trying to isolate those poorly converted (typically old) books that essentially contain only page #s. The objective is to find them so I can try to find alternative versions that are structured without page #s and show actual chapter sections in the TOC. I tried the approach of searching for a single occurrence of "page_[0-9]|page [0-9]|page[0-9]" in the NCX TOC but that approach doesn't work and on a sub-sample run I get too many hits, none of which seem to show page #s in the TOC.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.
