Accurate page counts in a reflowable ebook?

To me, that is a joke.Even using page maps, you are looking at page counts for a specific physical edition. The only page counts that I've ever found useful was Adobe's synthetic page map algorithm since that gives the same page numbers for the same epub file on any size of device regardless of playing with line spacing, margins, font size, etc.

Page counts that vary with font size, margins, line spacing, line height, etc. are not transferable and so, to me, of no use.

Out of a perhaps morbid curiosity, is there a reason that you are modify the font size on your messages?

Can you adjust line spacing with ePub? I had some issues with that, and it's the main reason I switched to KePub.

Sorry if my earlier message was a bit confusing. I'm no expert when it comes to this stuff. To clarify, I'm not really concerned about transferring the exact page count from one medium to another. What I really like is the 'pages left in the chapter' feature, and knowing it corresponds 1:1 with page clicks on my sage, regardless of the font and line spacing. I find it a lot more useful than the 'time left in chapter' stat on Kindle, which I often find inaccurate.

Do you happen to know Amazon's method for determining the Kindle page count? I've noticed that some shorter books in my library can have longer page counts, and vice versa.

Lol the default font size is too small in my opinion. I'm just trying to make my messages more readable

Another advantage to ePub is that the Count Pages plugin does the page numbering for ePub but it cannot do the page numbering for KePub.

Could someone please help me understand what RMSDK is and how it can be incorporated into ePub to achieve a better appearance?

Thanks!
