Libra 2 How to display actual number of pages in a book

DeviOT · 12-24-2023, 07:22 PM

Hi everyone, I've tried looking around on Google and couldn't find anything. I'm looking to basically display the number of times I will have to flip the page on my kobo. I.e. if the book has 300 pages, but I will have to flip the page 450 times I want it to display 450. Thanks in advance! (Not sure how relevant this is, but this is for sideloaded books)

The only way to get that number is you use KOReader. ePub will not do it and KePub should do it but doesn't because of some bug in the page number.

That's really unfortunate. I tried koreader but as far as I can see it doesn't work with onedrive and dropbox integration is much more difficult than the inbuilt one through nicklemenu but thanks either way

KEPUB does what you want, as long as you don't mind the page count being slightly off. The longer your chapters are, the bigger the difference becomes, but in a normal novel the page count will only be off by maybe 2-3 pages per chapter.
