The newer ones do, the ones processed in I blieve the last six months, are
supposed to have the dashed line, and then the page number.

I remember going through this same discussion about Kurzweil and
Daisy before with somebody with textbooks (was it you Dr. Cross?)
voicing the same concern. The concern is that .brf files also seem to
have some kind of paging issue.
Both these concerns seem critical to me. Kurzweil is meant for use by
a population which includes many students. Brf files which bookshare
processes certainly need to retain print pages.
