Quite a few ebooks have such wide margins, that the page number and text does not overlap. Unfortunately, since most ebook users want the maximim amount of text on the screen, we reduce the margins to as small as possible so the overlap occurs. My margin and line spacing sliders live at the far left and in the stylesheet, margins are set to 0.

The page number at the bottom does not update to the page number in the side margin until you are entirely on that page. So if the 6th line down shows 132, the bottom of the screen will show 131. The next screen of text should show 132 at the bottom. This is assuming that you don't have the font size set so small that you are getting multiple page numbers down the right edge of the screen.
