I mean, do you prefer a page numbering system that is dependant on the font settings? Can you explain which are its advantages?

I can't care lees about it, but I've read a lot of messages about it.

I don't need reliable. I need other features.

I think it count characters, not the html size, but I think there's more info about this method in the thread about the "Count pages" plugin.

Being like paper books can be good or bad, not an advantage itself. Anyway, as I've told you, I can't care less about the number of pages and its reliability.

I've answered about this, I believe

Yes, I've understood it wrong, you're right.
