Ah the joy of PDF.

1. The "page" doesn't end in the middle the SCREEN ends in the middle. Basically one PDF "page" reflowed might be a page and a half. Also, headers and footers on the PDF "page" will display inline wherever they are.

2. Same issues. It is just showing the PDF "page" numbers... it is not interpolating them to "screen" numbers.

This is why most prefer ePub or LRF on the Sony. You can buy LIT or Mobipocket format if ePub isn't available and you will get much better results. Also, avoiding Adobe secure format since the DRM can not be removed.
