This meansthat, 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 bookalso might be smaller or larger than will fit on one page of the eBook. So, looking at the readingstatus bar when turning pages you might encounter page 45, and the page after that will still bepage 45, and maybe the one after that too. And then you will reach page 46. Or, you will turnfrom page 45 to 47. What happened to page 46? It was on the same page as page 45. Whenyou make the text size larger, the same page in the eBook will flow over more pages in theReader.• Reflowable eBooks in PDF format: Page numbering is for the entire book and reflectssome prior account of page numbering, before formatting for the text size.
