hmm, makes me wonder if the "stripper," should be used at all? Aren't we 
sophisticated enough by this time to handle the vagaries of what is needed? 
Or, maybe not?

Ouch ouch. Like Bob, I am more confused now. Plus I don't have the
benefit of ever experiencing what these books are like after I validate
them because I'm sighted. So it's like dropping many hours of work into
a black hole and hoping for the best. And I, like many of you guys, am a
perfectionist. So I go over every word, check spellings in weird foreign
names, check everything, make it as perfect as I can, and upload it.

But then what is happening to my work?

I always do the wonderful ^p^m^p thing so that there are blank lines on
either side of the page breaks. But I have NOT been re-typing each page
number on the top of a page if the page numbers are at the bottom.

I have left page numbers at the bottom of the page. Am I now correct in
my understanding that they all get wiped out? Even if there is a blank
line between the page number and the following page break?

I do put a page number on the top of the first page of a chapter. It
just makes sense to do that. But is it mandatory put all other page
numbers at the top of each page?

If the mysterious stripper is so smart can't it tell numeric characters
from alphabetic characters and leave numeric page numbers at the bottom
of the page?
