Don't think there's a way to solve this issue. If you install PRS+, there might be some acceptable alternatives or you could turn off the index completely. As theducks has explained, ADE counts page numbers by 1024 character blocks.

Page: Characters
1: 1-1024
2: 1025-2048
3: 2049-3072
4: 3073-4096

Meaning if the screen is displaying characters 1536-2560, the status would show 2-3. The upside of this is page numbers are fixed regardless of font size. So say, you're at the doctor's and you start reading a book on the PRS-350 and stop at page 100. If you wish to continue reading on the PRS-650 when you get home, then you just go to page 100 and you're more or less where you left off on the PRS-350 despite the difference in screen size.

On my PRS-350 with small font, 1 ADE page usually equals 3 screen refreshes.
