I just tried again - this time with Great Expectations - and the problem is gone, the two versions are identical.
So the issue regards just Standard Ebook's David Copperfield and my Kobo for some reason. Like I said, enabling/disabling 'Hyphenate files' and 'Clean up ePub markup' options in KoboTouchExtended produce no differences in the conversion of David Copperfield to kepub. -EDIT- Davidfor, how do you take screenshots from the Kobo?

I get why KePub is a filetype plugin. But KF8 should also be a filetype plugin given that only Kindles or Kindle apps can handle it.

I am looking a Preferences: Plugins: File Type plugins. I have 7 entries and none are KePub (related) OTOH I see both AZW3 and KePub in the Conversion output plugins section So you might see how I am confused here? |

Calibre supports KF8 out of the box and yet KePub has to be added in. Both should ether be supported out of the box or both have to be added in.

Code:
[FeatureSettings] Screenshots=true To take a screenshot, press the power button. Unfortunately, the power button will no longer work to put the device to sleep or wake it. That's OK if you have a sleep cover. If not, you will want to remove the option, or change it to "false", later. |

Yes, I figured that I will do that. Original kepub files are a rarity anyway.
Thanks for screenshot instructions! |

Kepub files don't display as two-column
Using a Kobo Forma. I frequently read epub files in landscape orientation, small font - and the Kobo Forma displays them in two columns. Which is exactly what I want.
I have noticed that kepub files don't do this; they just display in one column. Am I missing something, or is this just how they work? |

It has a setting to set the number of 'columns' in the display. (assumes you size the view window wider. IN the Viewer: Esc (to get to the options if you don't use the sidebar): Page Layout: (about halfway down In Page mode (hint hint) :set your numbers |

I'm pretty sure that the question is about what happens on the device. And I don't believe it is possible, to get multiple columns for a kepub. If I remember correctly, that is implemented by the RMSDK, not the renderer used for kepubs. |

[QUOTE=theducks;4049050]Is this a question about the Calibre viewer? I am not sure KEPUB displays natively.
The question was about reading on Kobo Forma. Thank you for all the responses. The consensus appears to be what I experience is the way things currently work on Kobo reader: EPUBs will automatically display 2-column if the reader decides the columns will fit. KEPUBs don't do this, and stay one column. DNSB points out KEPUBs can be tweaked to force multiple columns. Last edited by Happy_Reader; 10-20-2020 at 04:27 PM. |
