All of the books I have display the total number of pages in the book. I understand that a page is equal to 1024 characters, and that I will have the page number change only after several page turns.

However, I just purchased a book from Kobo and the page numbering is by chapter. And the page number changes with each page turn, regardless of how you sent the font size. When you reach the end of the chapter, it automatically jumps to the new chapter with a new page count.

Is this system of page numbering showing up in other books now? It's no big deal, but I have no idea of how far it is till the end of the book now.

Edit: I believe that it's because it is a kepub. Any way of getting the old page numbering system back?
