Jill, this is a general question though it was
brought up by your comment.
(smile) Has anyone ever run into a user who actually
enjoys seeing the book
title or author's name or chapter title at the top
and bottom of every
page? Why would a submitter want those left in? I
am asking after Jill
suggested a validator get in touch with a submitter
before removing such
material.
