Ok, thanks for the fast reply. I looked into the code and decided I can live without it for the time being:-).
I noticed that when I click the plugin button with no value in my custom column, it calculates the page count using any of the available algorithms. When I click the button again, it recalculates a thta seems to be a word count (102 337). Is that intentional? To me it seems like a bug.
When I use "e-book viewer (Calibre)" algorithm, it reports 645 as opposed to 538 reported by the actual viewer. Should these not be the same?
When I use the "Paragraphs (APNX accurate)", it reports 381. My Kindle actually reports 457 pages. Is there a way to match these two? All my books on my Kindle are actually generated in Calibre so they have a Calibre-generated APNX file.
The books are all in azw3 format.
EDIT: as per Kindle - I see I could use the number generated by the plugin and supply that to the Kindle. But actually the page numbers on the Kindle closely correspond to actual page turns (I use small font size with little margins and it pretty much corresponds with a page count increasing almost every page turn), which is something I like. So is it possible to do it the other way around?
EDIT2: Hm, in the Kindle 2/3/4/Touch Device plugin, I have checked "Send page number informatino when sending books" and it was set to "fast" method. That should amount to 2300 characters. When I use the "custom (char per page)" algorithm in the Count Pages plugin with 2300, it gives 289 pages, which is much less. 2300/(457/289) gives 1454, but when the custom value to 1454, it gave me 448 pages. I guess the Count Pages plugin and Kindle plugin count slightly different things.
EDIT3: When I try it on another ebook, the numbers are still off, but in different ratios, so the custom algorithm does not really help me.
