I just remembered the author of one of the many epub files I've found with this problem, so then I was able to find an epub file with this problem and do a screen capture of the top of ADE, showing how the ADE-generated page number appears. The format of the ADE-generated page number in this particular file is displaying: iii (1/2).
That looks very much like ADE is doing a deliberate thing: identifying the print page number (iii) and noting that for whatever reason, ADE is rendering that one print page as two electronic pages (1/2, 2/2). I would suspect that the latter is an artifact of ADE using its internal character-count mechanism to decide that the "single page" is really two or three ADE "pages" and attempting to be helpful by dividing it up that way for you.

If that's the case, then it may be confusing or ugly, but it's neither an error nor a bug. Given that we're talking about an Adobe-invented extension and how it is handled by Adobe software, I am not surprised by this.

Do you ever see bigger numbers in those parentheses? I know I've got one really dense ebook in my collection that might generate such results - IIRC, it was printed in really tiny print and still takes up about a thousand printed pages. (It's a big "history of science fiction" omnibus that I think was intended as the reading material for an academic course. I just know I was grateful to get it cheap and electronic, so I could have access to such a wealth of material without having to squint.)

Not possible on my iPad, which is where I almost always read this forum.

Here's deback's image resized 400%. you can see the 'iii 1/2' if you squint in the red box. I assume iPads can blowup thumbs into an overlay, but I'd only be moderately surprised if they couldn't

Or try this one: (By the way, taking the screen capture again will do no good. It will still be a small image (I did not reduce the original image). I enlarged the original image and posted it below.)
Where did you get that image? It's worthless. It's too small and when it's made large enough, it's too fuzzy. Please stop posting it unless you can get an image we can actually see properly.

Sony Readers show something like 5-6 of 212 because on screen it's got part of page 5 and part of page 6.

Then please take my word for it that it states at the top (exactly as I've typed it below):

iii (1/2)

Please note that sometimes it displays a similar string, but the letters and numbers are a little different--when viewing different epub files that contain a page-map.xml file. The page numbers at the top (or bottom) of ADE are NOT always iii (1/2).

Deleting the page-map.xml file always solves the page-numbering problem (that is, page numbers generated by ADE--any version). After deleting the page-map.xml file inside the epub file, the page numbers (as generated by ADE) become normal and display the following:

1/600

which means that you're viewing page 1 of 600 pages (or however many pages are in the epub file, as generated by ADE; I chose a number out of the air when I chose 600, in case anyone wants to question where I came up with "600").

I hope I've provided enough details and clarification about this problem.
I think I'm with Rev Bob on this, but I'd need to see more details to understand it properly. The page numbering looks like what is common in the frontmatter for text books (Roman numerals and then restart the count when the text starts). And the second part could an expression to show that that page doesn't completely fit on the screen. The solution for you is to remove the page-map. But, I am curious about what is actually going on. Can you run it through the ScrambleEbook plugin and post it?

This curiosity is separate to removing the page-map. That is a reasonable request, just not one the rest of us understood the need for. I've never seen one, so had no idea how they behaved. And to be honest, still don't. Now I want to know.

Yes, I can see that. And with the other examples, I'm even more intrigued. At the moment, I'm wondering if the "(5/2)" is supposed to mean "Page 5 of chapter 2". And the fact that you saw "iiii" followed by "iv" makes me want to tear the book apart and see what exactly is in it. If you had said "iiii" followed by "v", as "iiii" isn't that uncommon for "4" (look at an analog clock). But, two versions of 4?

Please, post the scrambled book or a link where I can find it myself.

Edit: You beat me. I'll have a look at it tonight as I don't have ADE here. And I'm supposed to be working.
