NickelTypeFix: a mod for better typography and typesetting (kepub only) - Page 3

I want to thank you! It's much better.

It's not perfect, but it is much better. If I have the line height small enough, I still get the broken line. If I have the line height one step larger, I get the letter descenders ever so slightly cut off like in your photo on your git. If the top margin can be reduced a tiny but, that may push the rest of the descenders back where they belong on the previous page.

There one other thing I would really like if it can be done. I have no idea if ti can be done or not. Would it be possible to change the page numbering so it uses the same page numbers as RMSDK?

You're welcome! Can you make a screenshot of your exact use case? And mention what font you're using? Perhaps there's still something I can do about this!

As for pagination: I have no idea! I'd need to look into that...

Here is how the two pages look in KePub. The first screen is at minimum line height and the other two are one step up.
