PS Joe:
In pdf on ipad. I don't see page numbers in pdf too often. I try to force a page number and sometimes see the page number flash for a second in upper left. But I have no figured out how to consistently show what page on.
If you view the PDF in Apple's Preview and choose View>Show Sidebar, then each page displayed in the Sidebar will have a pagination number below it, even if the original document has no page numbering. The small individual page icon in the Sidebar is also highlighted so you know which page you are on in the main Preview window. It also seems to work this way if the View is set to Continuous Scroll or Single Page. It works as well in Two Pages view but the Sidebar retains the individual pagination.
