One question about the page count plugin:
Is it possible to do the counting based on:
- page size + margins + font/fontsize? ( you'd set these parameters manually before)

I print stuff at A5 with set margins and fontsize and it would be neat to have an accurate page count within Calibre
Try this:
  1. Set Preferred Output in Preferences->Behaviour to PDF.
  2. Set Page size, margins etc in Preferences->Conversion->Output options->PDF Output
  3. Create an integer custom column for page counts, e.g. #pages/Pages
  4. Set this plugins Page count column accordingly
  5. Set this plugins Page count Algorithm to E-book Viewer (calibre)
  6. Convert whatever ebook-format you have (e.g. EPUB) to PDF
  7. Run this plugin
