There are (at least) four French editions of this text - the original Folie et deraison (1961); the abridged version (1964); the reedition with the two appended texts (1972) and the Tel 'pocket' edition (1976).

The Tel is the only one still in print, and will set you back about 14 euros. That way you can check the page and the translation.

Surely, you can make a formula. Basically, you can multiply your french
textpage with textpages-english/textpages-french (excluding blank pages,
contents, etc). However, such a formula can never be more concise than ±
1 page so you will always have to adjust the page number by comparing.

To avoid this, you could make a program with a line-page mapping from
french to english and visa versa. But, who would spend the time?
