Thanks for replying, Peter.
Re: the NCX TOC - to scramble or not to scramble is trivial from a technical POV. The question would be what the Moderators think is acceptable. At the moment I've played safe and scrambled.
Re: an inline TOC - this is more difficult as there is no 100% reliable programmatic way to determine whether the page with the most hyperlinks is an inline TOC or a page of Endnotes (
or something else entirely). The Eyeball Method is very reliable but I'm not currently considering an interactive utility with endless user settings. I'd rather err on the safe side of scrambling an inline TOC than revealing the Endnotes.
Re: Headings. That
might be possible to some extent if only text from <h1>, <h2> etc tags were revealed but, as we all know, many books are not created with logical tags. Once again the Moderators would need to have their say. Until then, when in doubt ... scramble.

No I did mean scrambling. I want the book to have the look&feel of the original as far as possible without being able to read/comprehend any of it. Rather than describe it I've added a sample before/after page in post #2.

Perhaps, but only by someone other than me
I haven't used Sigil since the Calibre Editor was released.
