Post any queries in the Calibre Editor forum, that guarantees Kovid will see them. BTW: you can use the calibre book editor stand-alone, no need to use it from the library manager. BR |

Hi Tex, Thank you for you easy-to-follow instructions. I did as you suggested and now the links work! Wow. Amazing. I was just wondering about something. In other ebooks, when I tap on the number in the body of the text, The note pops up. Is there a quick way to modify our coding so that, rather than jumping to the notes section, I would see, for example, just footnote 15 in a pop-up box when I tap on the number 15 in the main body of the book? |

Usually "popup footnotes" are an EPUB3 thing. And this is EPUB2. Quote:

If you're using Calibre to read this book, one of its heuristics looks for "superscript numbers" linking to each other. Use this Regex: Search: (<a href="#f[tn]\d+" id="f[tn]\d+">)(\[\d+\])</a> Replace: \1<sup>\2</sup></a> this will change my [1] link into a superscript <sup>[1]</sup>. Then Calibre's reader will enable the footnote popups. Last edited by Tex2002ans; 02-13-2020 at 09:33 PM. |

I do most reading on the Kobo Forma.
I use Calibre's reader to read PDFs (because it's so slow on my Forma) or ePubs with lots of pictures (so I can appreciate the images in their color) Last edited by thymesnewroman; 02-13-2020 at 10:56 PM. |

I plan to do this Regex Search-and-replace and see if it will make my Forma do pop-ups. |

But that still leaves the ”epub3 footnote code” issue. I'll be happy with the code you've kindly shared. Last edited by thymesnewroman; 02-14-2020 at 12:27 AM. |

You can read the Kobo EPUB Guidelines, this is the part of footnotes:
