Hello Adrian,
I've not used FS Reader other than to read the JAWS documentation.
This is not exactly what you're looking for, but it was all I could find
when searching the documentation, information which I'm sure you've already
seen.
Beginning with JAWS 15 and MAGic 13, for DAISY books that have text, the
text of the books appear in HTML, or Web page format, in the document pane
of FSReader. The document pane is located on the right side of the window,
and the left side of the window contains a tree view for navigating in the
book by headings, chapters, pages, and so on, depending on how the book is
structured by the author. The new user interface has the following items,
starting at the top of the window: 

Title bar - This is where the title of the book you are currently reading is
displayed, and it is the top row of the window. 
Menu bar 
Tool bar - This has buttons for mouse users to click. These functions are
all accessible with the keyboard by using hot keys or menu commands. 
Navigation pane - This is located on the left side of the FSReader window.
It contains a tree view for navigating by headings, chapters, pages, or
whatever unit the author of the book used in the book creation process.
And this:
The Navigation menu contains the following items: 

Bookmarks submenu 

Set bookmark, CTRL+B 
View bookmarks, CTRL+K 
Go to page, CTRL+G 
Search submenu 

Find, CTRL+F 
Find next, F3 
Find previous, SHIFT+F3
I use Kurzweil for reading books from Bookshare. The help key there acts as
a sort of status bar, giving you page x of y pages.  Depending on whether
the information was retained when the book was scanned, page numbers may
appear at the bottoms or tops of pages.
Also, depending on how the book was scanned, it may have pages, which will
work with a next or previous page command, as well as a go to page command,
but it seems that often, especially with the "publisher quality" eBooks, the
book will have been formatted so that it has only one page.  There are
usually bookmarks embedded in the document, but again, that does not truly
speak to your question as to finding specific location.  
I haven't played with the FS Reader enough to make informed comments.
Sorry this was not very helpful.  Perhaps someone else has more information.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] FSReader; how to locate page numbers

I'm reposting this query in case it got lost among all the VLC chatter. I do
know that chances are no one has an answer, but I'm making sure.

Hi. I'd like to know what page number I'm on when reading books with
FSReader 3.0. there doesn't seem to be a status bar, and neither the menus
nor the help documentation point to an answer. Any ideas?
