Resurrecting an essentially dead topic here, but if I used the command-line interface from the KFX plugin and Kindleunpack to make an epub for both KFX and KF8 files respectively, will the manifest in the opf list the images in the same order? The reason why I ask this is because I have no usable vision, but am interested in constructing an epub with full-resolution images whenever possible. If they are in the exact same order, I can use regular expressions and the terminal to mass-rename the images, paste them in place of the low-resolution images in the KF8, and repack using Calibre's ebook-polish CLI. And yes, I realize I can just simply look at the actual HTML source to determine, but that would be a painstaking process indeed, and am hoping someone with more knowledge of both KF8 and KFX formats would know the answer to my question.
Why not just stick with the KFX output? The main problem, for someone who relies on semantic information, is simply the fact that there is no semantic information when it comes to heading hierarchy in KFX format. Even when a KF8 delineates with perfectly compliant heading hierarchy, that information is not transferred over via KFX, though the visual formatting seems to still be the same as far as I can tell (did not make a one-to-one comparison). And it appears that the KFX format, even when using the clunky interface of the Kindle for PC app, does not pass the heading information to assistive technologies either, even if the details for the book says that screen reader is supported -- go figure.
Thanks for any time and effort spent on entertaining my query, and happy holidays to all.
