pdf to epub: page count wrong

Lord Honig · 11-07-2013, 03:51 PM

Hi. When I convert a pdf to epub, the page count is lost and the resulting epub thinks there are only 2-4 pages, although all of them are readable. Wat do?

There are no pages in an epub. Page count in readers is usually calculated from an average of number of words per page (plus or minus page breaks, I guess?). Usually about 1500 words/page, but I know my Orizon assumes about 2500 words/page.

The Count Pages (?) addon allows you to add columns with numbers of words/pages, with a customizable number of words per page.
