Those numbers are supposed to be 135, 140, 145, etc. Is there any way I can make this work, or is this book just poorly formatted? Thanks.

It's very poorly formatted. The problem is that you cannot do line numbers line that and not have line breaks in the middle of the paragraph. Also, depending on the text size, the line numbers could be off. So just edit the book to dump the line numbers as they cannot work properly and still be properly formatted. If I needed a large enough font size, the line numbers would be incorrect.
