I purchased an EPUB version of
A Canticle for Leibowitz from Kobo some time ago. All of the core text is there, but there are a number of formatting problems that make it irksome to read, namely that the Table of Contents is nonfunctional, and the chapter markers are incorrect.
I raised the issue with Kobo, who in turn raised it with the Publisher, but the publisher considered the issues "minor" and opted not to fix or recall the book. Kobo offered to refund me, but the book was $3, and I was also happy that the book was sold DRM-free by the publisher, so I told them not to worry about it.
I thought I would try fixing it myself using Calibre's book editor, but it's proving more difficult than I originally thought.
As best I can figure, the book is in three major "parts", and each part has about ten chapters in it. The problem seems to be that the individual HTML files comprise parts rather than chapter (e.g. "index_split_003.html" is the first part and contains ch's I-IX, etc).
What is the easiest way of marking a new chapter point in the HTML or CSS, such that the e-reader (specifically, my Kobo) will be able to easily skip between them and provide reading estimates? I could physically chop the index_split HTMLs into smaller "chapter_split_XXX" files if that's the only way, but if there's a <div> or a <span> or something I can add that would require less surgery, that would be preferable.
Thanks in advance for any advice. If someone has a link to one of those E-book text scramblers/obfuscators for scrambling the ebook's copyrighted text but leaving the formatting, I'd be happy to upload the EPUB here for easier analysis.
