From my understanding we should let the page numbers be stripped. They are not actually deleted, just hidden in a daisy tag. So that whether they show up or not depends on the tool to read the book.
Whenever I validate or submit a book I delete the headers and leave the page numbers.

Gerald,

From what you say, then, I gather we can delete
headers manually without worrying about the page
numbers being stripped? We don't have to put in some
artificial heading?

Cindy



The most recent
revision to the DAISY standard specifies exactly how
to handle page numbers,
so once all vendors (Bookshare, Kurzweil, Freedom
Scientific, etc.) support
the latest DAISY standard, then that problem should
go away as long as
volunteers manually remove the text from the running
headers/footers or
normalize the text in the headers/footers (that is
make them consistent) so
that the Stripper can easily recognize them.
