It looks like every chapter is one long rotulus where you scroll up and down, so it is not reflowable - perhaps that is the way that javascript renders epub, but without original epub I don't know.

We can slap the RPNs in there--a page map and we can slap the visible page numbers in there, too. It will significantly interfere with the layout of the eBook. This is "one of those;" it's an eBook that is, in actuality, reflowable, but it's formatted to the nth damn degree. When I originally met with this client, I proposed fixed-layout--that's how heavily-formatted it is, and all you guys know, I call FXL the "Format of last resort" for a reason. But they wanted reflow and we made it so. Nonetheless, it's rife with text boxes, tables...I just dread the thought of of adding these RPNs and visible page numbers. I know--KNOW--the client isn't going to be happy with the result.
They're already cranky (not with us) because the WAY that the page flows doesn't align, visually, with how they 'see' the book pages. When we add these PNs...well. URGH.
I agree with najgori about what s/he sees here. It's like this odd critter, neither beast nor fowl.
