The Standard Ebooks edition of Moby Dick is missing a page count.

Pages: 718

ISBN: I don't believe this edition has one

Thanks!

Standard ebooks doesn't state a page count of 718 pages. They give a word count of 213,541 words.

Please advise how you came to 718 pages. As they use epubs which don't have standardized font sizes we can't use ereader page numbers. But you may be able to use calibre.

Apologies, I was using the page numbers that appear in my Kindle. As this doesn't appear for every book and doesn't change with font changes, I assumed it was embedded in the metadata of the book.

Using Calibre (https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho... plugin with the APNX accurate method), the estimated page count is 665 for the azw3 file.

If there is a better/more standard way to get the page count information, please let me know!

For ebooks, the options are publisher, PDF file, or calibre.

So calibre it is.

665 pages added.

Thank you!
