Is the ADE page numbering scheme really ambiguous as it sounds? If yes, then ADE page numbering compliance is a loose label. I hope that Adobe does better than that. Well, you must know this issue more than I do. Can you help explain it? Thanks.

Unicode UTF-8 also takes 1 byte for most characters that you see but occasionally it uses 2 or even 3. ADE page numbers are a computed value not based on font size thus they are uniform on all readers and all books. This is their value for the consumers. They are not expect to line up exactly with any particular device but represents the approximate size of a page in a book.
