Stripping anchors from Table of Contents

ownedbycats · 02-13-2023, 07:10 PM

After converting an AZW3 to epub, the TOC often has anchors that point to the beginning of the chapter:

Code:

  <navPoint id="num_18" playOrder="17" class="chapter">
      <navLabel>
        <text>Chapter 9</text>
      </navLabel>
      <content src="text/part0017.html#G6PI0-7f53922048e342229731e32ecdd1d3d5"/>
    </navPoint>

I prefer to strip these out, mostly because they result in weird gaps in the little chapter-length graph on my Kobo.

Can I automagically do this during conversion?

No there is no automatic function for this.
