Post Question about page switching mode
I need it to show the next pair of pages. For example, after flipping to page 2, I saw pages 3-4, not 2-3. How can this be done?

Thank you very much, sir. I seem to have forgotten about this feature. So, I'm a little embarrassed. That was probably a really stupid question, huh. But anyway, I appreciate it.

I want to take this opportunity to ask, how can I turn the page display on and off?

Look in the viewer preferences under page layout.

Well, I looked in that settings section, but I don't see anything responsible for that. Am I misunderstanding something?

Paged mode vs flow mode (AKA just Scroll)
Paged mode also has settings for screen orientation (if it can change)

I meant displaying the page number somewhere at the bottom. Since all I see now is the number of the book's reading progress, presented as a percentage.

I need to see the pages numbers.

There are NO pages in EPUB. It is reflowable so if I make the font BIG it takes more Screen Fulls to show the content. If I make the font tiny, I might fit it on 1 screen

As @theducks said, there are no page numbers in ebooks. Or at least they don't have a fixed definition. There is a lot of discussion about this in this forum.

But, you can change how the position in the book is displayed. This is on the "Headers and footers" page of the preferences. You might find a display that fits you better than the percentage.

Okay, thank you, guys!

And special thanks to @kovidgoyal for a great program with flexible settings.
