1000s of duplicate pages in an epub??

Steady · Today, 12:43 PM

Hey all, I'm new to the forum!

I have been using KoReader on my Pocketbook InkPad Color 3 for well over a year, and have enjoyed it the whole time, but I just ran into a super weird bug.

This book, "Immediacy or, The Style of Too Late Capitalism", is in epub format. It is 235 pages, but for some reason when opening in KoReader, it's 8423? Every page or two it is repeating EVERY footnote entry and every page of sources from the end of the book, which adds up to around ~35 duplicate pages per non-duplicate page. I have tried the direct-from-source epub, as well as one processed through Calibre, and both had the same results. Any idea what's going on here?

Here are some pics showing the difference between the default Pocketbook reader and KoReader, both linked and attached:

For a start, disable footnotes rendering in top menu - second tab - style tweaks.
Also try disabling “Embedded styles” from bottom menu - last tab.

KOReader does what it’s told, and it seems like the book is very poorly formatted.
You can scramble your book and upload here, so we can have a look at the styles in css.
