When you read paperback and hardcover books, you use page numbers for tracking progress and for discussing parts of the book. But Amazon\u2019s Kindle only shows you your location in the book by default. Here\u2019s how to see real page numbers in a Kindle book.<\/p>\n

When it comes to Kindle software, the most reliable way to track your location in a book doesn\u2019t involve using page numbers. This is because when you\u2019re reading on an e-book reader with customizable font sizes, page numbers become meaningless. Instead, Kindle breaks down the book content into small chunks and uses that to calculate how far along you are.<\/p>\n

\"Time
\u201cLocation 718 of 4499\u201d is great for Kindle software, but not for the human reading the book.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

But don\u2019t worry, Kindle also supports page numbers. If a Kindle book has a \u201cPrint Length\u201d section on the Amazon page, it means you\u2019ll be able to see real page numbers as you move through the book.<\/p>\n

\"Print<\/p>\n

Once enabled, page numbers will be visible in the bottom-left corner of the reading screen (replacing the location or reading progress).<\/p>\n

In our experience, we\u2019ve found that books transferred using Calibre (sometimes converted from the ePub format) also support real page numbers.<\/p>\n

To get started, first, navigate to the \u201cYour Library\u201d section in the Kindle e-book reader (This works for all Kindle models.).<\/p>\n

\"Tap<\/p>\n

Then, tap a book to start reading.<\/p>\n

\"Select<\/p>\n

Here, tap in the top part of the screen to reveal the toolbar.<\/p>\n

\"Tap<\/p>\n

From here, select the \u201cAa\u201d button.<\/p>\n

\"Tap<\/p>\n

Go to the \u201cMore\u201d tab and choose the \u201cReading Progress\u201d option.<\/p>\n

\"Choose<\/p>\n

Switch to the \u201cPage in Book\u201d option. If this option is blacked out, it means that real page numbers won\u2019t be available for this book on Kindle.<\/p>\n

\"Tap<\/p>\n

Now, go back to the reading view. In the bottom-left corner of the screen, you will now see the page number.<\/p>\n

\"Real<\/p>\n

You can quickly cycle through all the reading progress options (Page in Book, Time Left in Chapter, Time Left in Book, Location in Book, and Note) by tapp<\/a>ing the text in the bottom-left corner of the screen.<\/p>\n
