The greatest maficmaster's retirement plan vol 6 page numbering.
-
Hello.
Is there a reason why the volume mentioned in the title, at least on Google's Play books, has roman number as page number for the chapters, and then Arabic number for the sections after the Afterword? -
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_numbering states: "When publishers wish to distinguish between the front matter and the story, the initial title pages are not numbered, the front matter is numbered using lower-case Roman numerals (i, ii, iii...) and the first page of the story or main content begins with 1."
It is possible that when JNC moved illustrations from the start of the books to the end they accidentally moved the 'start of book' indicator and so Play Books mistakenly thinks that nearly everything is 'front matter'.
-
That sound like this is not intentional.
Can it be fixed soon?
-
@Skipper I would encourage you to contact Google Support, as however you're reading it, the page numbers are being inserted by that program or possibly by Google Play. I have uploaded a new version of the EPUB to Google, which may take up to 72 hours to process, but I cannot guarantee that will fix anything as we do not control how Play Books displays page numbers, and their instructions do not specify how the EPUB needs to be formatted with regards to page numbers.

So, I contacted Google Support, and they said that this was a known issue, and they were working on it.
We can probably close this thread now. Fingers crossed they will have this fix eventually.
On an unrelated issue, also on Google Play Book, "How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord vol 7" is named "How NOT to Summon a Demon Lord vol 6", despite being marked as vol 7 under it. This has been an issue for a while, but I havent seen it fix yet. can you have quick look? @myskaros

@Skipper From our end, there's no mention of "volume 6" anywhere in our Google Play listing. Where do you see it appearing?
-
Small nitpick, but my OCD is screaming at me now that I see vol 6 also is missing a colon.

It also says
Vol.
instead of Volume while we're at it 😜 -
Can confirm.
It displays incorrectly in the play books store.It displays correctly in my library but I have the premium epub that I first put through calibre then uploaded. So I don't know if this is a google issue or the version uploaded to play books.
-
@myskaros In case you haven't seen this.

Looks fine to me. Google Play Store.
Edit: Oh wait I see it now. You have to click on the store page for volume 7, it's the subtitle that says v6.
