I wish there was a way to track force page numbers in ePub to match the printed version of a book, but there isn't.
It is not way off. If I choose to distribute Catch 22 to my class in epub format then the page numbers will be the same no matter what font size or reader they use. If one person cites page 84 everyone else will be on the same page.
