Hi

I am not sure if this is the right section for this question, but felt that this would be the most suitable. Just came to my mind that in the academic world one almost always gives a citation on the basis of page number, does this mean one would have problem when one buys a book say on kindle or any reflowable format (and I have some experience with mobi - which always has trouble in maintaining page numbers). So for now do you think one is stuck with pdf of the non reflowable type if one buys a text book or any other book for purely academic purpose?
