eBooks (and periodicals) in EPUB format: Page numbering is for the entire eBook and
reflects some prior account of page numbering, before formatting for the text size. This means
that, if the original book had 525 pages, then so does the eBook. But the pages are re-flowed,
so a page from the book might start in the middle of the page in the eBook. A page in the book
also might be smaller or larger than will fit on one page of the eBook. So, looking at the reading
status bar when turning pages you might encounter page 45, and the page after that will still be
page 45, and maybe the one after that too. And then you will reach page 46. Or, you will turn
from page 45 to 47. What happened to page 46? It was on the same page as page 45. When
you make the text size larger, the same page in the eBook will flow over more pages in the
Reader.

same as for eBooks in EPUB format, described above.

Non-reflowable (scanned without character recognition) eBooks in PDF format:
Page numbering is for the entire book, and reflects the number of scanned pages. Page numbers
also might be on the scanned pages, but there is no necessary relationship. Page 6 in the eBook
might have the scanned page number iv, and page 30 in the eBook might have the scanned page
number 5.
