Hi mary,
The numbers are in the daisy tag if the header/footer stripper was able
to establish a pattern and figured out where page 1 2, 3 etc. are. As for
asking folks to read Daisy books, I'd rather not read in that format. -----
Since the headers we are currently attempting to eliminate are running
headers, the person could simply do a find and replace.
However, if we could incorperate an option in the unpack utility that would
be neither here nor there.
