Missing Paragraphs

[geordie-lad]

when i transfer books from Calibre to my e-book there is paragraphs missing at the end of some chapters. I am sorry if this is in the wrong section, i am new to this so please bear with me. I am wonderring if it is something i am doing or is there anything i need to install on my computer.

Thanks for any reply to my problem, i have a me-book.

Kind regards geordie-lad

Missing at the end (on readers) is a symptom of too large a segment.

Converting with Calibre will make proper size segments if you have not messed with the "Split Larger than" preference.

Hi theducks, I have not changes anything in calibre since installing it, i had a look in preferences it has Auto increment series index

use_series_auto_increment_tweak_when_importing = False

series_index_auto_increment = 'next'

not sure what that really means,

thanks for your quick response
Kind regards geordie-lad

Those are tweaks that affect series (alternate ways) numbering.

The setting I mentioned is in Preferences: Conversion: Output or EPUB Output tab on a single book Conversion

If you want to peak at the size of Files inside an epub:
Select the Book: Tap "T" (tweak), Explode.
Depending on who packaged the files, it could be now be in another folder(s)
In Explorer: View Details to see the sizes
> 640K for a (x)html file is a problem.

Other than Really weird looking naming, yes, those look fine size wise.
The largest is 212K


So segment SIZE is not your problem.
My guess is splits 5,6,7 are the meat of the book and the some chapters are probably at the end of each. all I come up with is my original diagnosis.

Those files have No extension. i expected .html or .xhtml

If Calibre converted TO those, you might file a bug report on the tracker and attach the original source file.
