Sorry. To clarify, I'm using the Kobo plug-in to convert the ePub to kepub. The ePub works properly on my Nook. The kepub generated by the calibre Kobo plug-in is what is having problems.

As for the starting in the middle of the book? The only times I've seen that is when the navigation document (nav.xhtml for ePub3 or toc.ncx for ePub2) is not correctly structured.
The book 'read's fine on my kobo. It starts at chapter one and proceeds to chapter two and so on.

However, I open the book as brand new. Scroll past the cover, title page, copyright, etc. The title page shows as page 230 of 465 on my Libra. Copyright shows as 231 out of 465, Chapter 1 shows as 232 of 465.

This is happening on both my Libra and my Clara (both with kepub).

As mentioned, on ePub on my Nook, the file works properly.

I'm sure it is the file, not the Kobo. But I'm not sure what is wrong with the file.
