How do I compare Canute page numbers with BRF page numbers?

The Canute 360 has nine lines.
If it is given a BRF without form feeds (otherwise known as page breaks) then it will split that book up into pages 9 lines long.
If it is given a BRF file with form feeds then it will still split pages into 9, but also break at the end of a page. So for example if given a 25 line file the Canute would show 9 lines on one page, 9 lines on the next, seven lines on the third followed by two blank lines, then the same for the next BRF page.
As a result you can calculate a page number as the number of BRF pages divided by 3.*
This is useful for manually editing bookmarks for books in a PC.
- Unless your BRF is less than 19 lines per form feed, in which case Canute will split it into two, or less than ten, in which case it will be one-to-one.
