Changing ePub layout from “paginated” to “scroll” still keeps page breaks

[zhen-huan-hu]

Steps to reproduce

Open an ePub file in Komga on iPhone. Change the layout from “paginated” to “scroll”.

Expected behavior

Texts from the same paragraph will be placed together with the same line space in-between.

Actual behavior

Page breaks from the “paginated” layout remain even for texts from the same paragraph.

I don't quite understand the issue, would you be able to provide more information, or maybe a video of the screen showing the problem ?

The texts below and above the highlighted gap are from the same paragraph. They were split into two pages in the paginated layout. After switching to the scrolling layout, there is a gap left separating the texts. Reopening the file with scrolling layout the gap disappears. I checked a few other files and saw the same issue.

Can you provide the book ?

Here you go.

Learning Python, 5th Edition (2013) - Mark Lutz.zip

Some other books I checked also exhibit the issue

It only happens on iOS. And not just for this book.

Here you can see the extra gap between 'but this time he nodded to her,' and 'the nod one gives an equal'.

If I switch to another app and then switch back, the gap disappears.

I don't have iOS, so i won't be able to reproduce/fix.
