This isn't a driver issue but relates to the different rendering engines used by the Kobo. If you use the standard driver you get a standard EPUB which is rendered using the Adobe renderer. Ones transfered with the extended driver will become "kepubified" and rendered using the Access renderer. Adobe counts a page as 1024 characters IIRC irrespective of the font size etc so 1 Adobe page doesn't correspond to 1 page displayed on the Kobo. The Access renderer is more intelligent and a page there is a page on your screen.

With the Adobe reader page 123 will be page 123 whatever size and type of font you are using. Not so with Access. Chose your driver and thus your rendering engine according to how you want to see your pages numbered.
