However the metadata extracted from the book by KFX Input shows ASIN=5KKR1B1TWVSXUGG6HYLAYMJ2EVY9INUS. That indicates that this is a personal document, not a book obtained directly from Amazon.

Other metadata in that KFX file shows that it was produced using KFX Output. KFX files produced that way can have "approximate page numbers" added during the conversion process. Those will be stripped out if the same book is later converted from KFX back to EPUB. I believe that is what has happened in this case.

In the next release of KFX Input I will add an indication in the conversion log to make it clear when the removal of approximate page numbers has been done.
Got the book again and converted the KFX to EPUB and it has page numbers. So something weird was going on with the last copy on my Kindle. Animal Farm I think we can chalk up to it being an Amazon issue. Thanks for your support!
