Chapter start in even page in google books,ADE. How fix?

Shornikov · 04-01-2016, 04:35 AM

I have some chapter in epub. One chapter in one file.
<itemref idref='text_0' />
<itemref idref='text_1' />...
Book NOT fixed layout.
Book reading in spread mode.

In Apple iBooks - all ok.
But google play books, ADE - start chapter in left part of spread.
I see some logic in this behavior, but i want fix it. How disable blank pages between chapters?
May be we have some like <itemref idref='text_0' properties="page-spread-any"/>

PS. I know about variant "all chapters in one file and use page-break-*".

I do not understand: are you talking about a reflowable EPUB3 using rendition:spread and "both" value?

Yes, reflowable. I try epub2 and epub3.
I don't use "rendition:" tag, in landscape mode tablet switch in spread mode automatic.

I understand your problem. To be honest I have not an answer. I fear the way the ebook reader application handles the right/left page in changing chapter and reflow spread is not related to any IDPF rules, especially for ePub2. I hope someone can help you, sorry.
