All my PDFs have a clear, definite, and readily discernible page numbers.

Short stories might be as little as 50 or a 100 pages, pulp novels tend to be around 200 - 300 pages. Longer/heavier/more involving fiction surpasses the 500 page count but probably not the 1000 page one.

Casanova's Memoirs are in the 4000 - 5000 page range. St. Thomas Aquinas' Summa Theologica is over 10,000 pages.

But I can empathise with how annoying it would be not to have such clear and consistent indication about a eBook's length/size.
