Most people want page numbers. Because of this, Amazon added page numbers to Kindle eBooks. Page numbers do not have to be tied to some pBook version's page numbers. But page numbers do need to be constant so they do not change when you change settings (font, font size, line spacing, paragraph spacing, margins, etc.) and ADE page number do this. So that's why they are the best choice for eBook page numbers.
Given Marvin's way of offering choices, if anyone can come up with other page numbers that would work, add them in too and give us a choice of which we want to use.
The number of screens until the end of the chapter do work as they do what they are meant to do. But there are no other page numbers to show how much you have left. A % doesn't work. You don't know how long you have left if you are 40% into the book. Besides, 40% of one book is not the same as 40% of another book.
Does anyone have any other ideas on page numbering other than doing away with them?
