I'm mostly an "I barely even notice if it's on or off" person. I usually leave it on so it's there when I want to glance at it.

@Frenzie
Thank you very much for your suggestions
This actually makes much more sense and is much more familiar to an average user.

P.S. Do you happen to know what font is used in the book you showed? It is wonderful!
Maybe there are some typography details in the very end of the book?

It's a copy of Der Golem gifted for Christmas 1922.

Leipzig

1916

It doesn't say anything in particular.

Geduckt bei Hesse & Becker in Leipzig
hundert Exemplare wurden auf Büttenpapier
abgezogen und handschriftlich numeriert

There seems to be a digitized copy here: https://archive.org/details/bub_gb_X1UTAAAAQAAJ

Definitely much clearer than n and rendering I think.

One thing missing. It doesn't talk about the pages left in a chapter/section.

With the pages left in a chapter, you originally got =>9 on a 10 page chapter. That meant you had to always add 1 to the number to get the total number of pages in the chapter.

Using the number of page flips, you would have 10 to get out of the chapter and not 9. 0 shows you have nothing left to read and/or no more pages to turn to exit the chapter.

0 is incorrect because when you are at the last page of the chapter, you have 1 page left to read and/or 1 page left to turn to exit the chapter.
