This setting is under "reading settings (second page), check: show page numbers in the margins" Because Adobe gave pages a fixed number of characters, depending on font, font scale, margins, etc. the displayed page and a page number have no connection. As you read this displayed margin page number will appear to rise or sink slightly with each page turn. I too found it rather strange at first when reading normal Epubs, Adobe, despite their tools for documenting things, does an absolute poor job in telling users why Epub page numbers have an odd way of displaying.
Till I found out I assumed the Epub was damaged or corrupt.
Oh I know about that, it was already ticked in the Settings menu. Im used to seeing the rising and falling number because I get that with my other reader, the Sony, by default.

Still prefer proper pagination but I guess I could live with it.
