How to convert epub to azw3 with page number

iafko69 · 05-29-2019, 04:45 PM

From few weeks I have Kindle Paperwhite 4. All of my books are epub converted to azw3, and I noticed some of the books dosn't show "Page number". I know they are not real page numbers, it depends on font size and so on... but I like them better then "Loc".
So...? Any solutions?

Iirc, you need the <filename>.apnx file inside the <filename>.sdr folder to get page numbers. Afaik, Calibre generates those automatically when you use Calibre's "Send to device" function.

I noticed when I flip the page (screen) sometime the page number is the same. Why's that?

Page numbers are based on the amount of content that fits on a printed page, which is more than fits on a typical e-book reader screen. So there will often be multiple screens of content per page number.

The idea is to have each page number associated with the same point in the book's content regardless of screen dimensions, font size, etc.
