It may be an EPUB now, but it was almost certainly converted from PDF. Original epubs don't have those line breaks; they're a sure sign of a bad PDF conversion.

That's the problem. A pirate site and much piracy starts with either scans (to PDF) or PDFs.

Only download PD PDFs from Archive Org, as their epubs are worse and don't ever download from Z-library.

Someone converted a PDF to epub. No ebook published as a proper reflowable epub is like that.

Yes, and there is no such thing as a good PDF conversion unless it's manually proofed and edited in a wordprocessor.

Please don't give the P any more help as the eBook he wants help with is pirated.

I too am done here.

I prefer to read on Kindle. I never read on desktop. So difficult to see the issues until I have transferred the book to the Kindle. But thanks for response.

There be wolves among the sheep.
Thanks for the advice Karellen!
