Display print page numbers in the Manifold Reader
For texts that have a print component, it would be useful to display in the Manifold reader corresponding print page numbers (if available) so readers could easily navigate between editions.
As part of this I imagine there would also be an interface that would let a user jump to a specific print page.
At Minnesota the coding we use in our epubs for pagebreaks looks like this (and ideally we'd want this to be available to HTML and MD strategies as well):
<h1 class="ct"><span id="pviii" role="doc-pagebreak" aria-label="viii" class="page"></span><span id="p1" role="doc-pagebreak" aria-label="1" class="page"></span><a class="xref" href="ump-malatino-0006.xhtml#toc">Surviving Trans Antagonism</a></h1>
How are we showing <span id="p6" role="doc-pagebreak" aria-label="6" class="page"></span>up for each other, and how come it sometimes feels so hard to do so?
References to page numbers are also included in an EPUB’s toc.xhtml
file:
<nav epub:type="page-list" role="doc-pagelist">
<ol style="list-style-type:none">
<li>
<a href="ump-malatino-0003.xhtml#pi">i</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="ump-malatino-0003.xhtml#pii">ii</a>
</li>
<li>
<a href="ump-malatino-0003.xhtml#piii">iii</a>
</li>
And these are DAISY's suggestions on the topic to ensure use by screen readers.
