Problem with free spaces when reading

Grzegorz123 · 12-09-2022, 09:03 AM

I have problem with Calibre ebook Viewer and I wonder if anyone can help me.
I started reading a book that has 260 pages but the Viewer shows 1170 and there are huge blank spaces between the text. I checked other books but it's the same every time, it's tiring to scroll down before you find the next page

Got to love Publishers that (try to) make the E-book look exactly like the print version by adding blank Paragraphs between chapters.
Conversion will not fix this nonsense. You need to use the Editor and remove those.
No magic code, since how they actually do this varies.
Somethink like this will be just before the next chapter (anchor, if a single file)

Code:

<p class="xyz">&nbsp;</p>
<p class="xyz"><br /> &nbsp;</p>
