Good response Cindy,

I also put a row of ********* above the Chapter title, to give um, the
stripper something to eat so it leaves my chapter numbers alone!

Sigh. Mary Anne, I was hoping someone else would reply to your question, but
no one has so far, so here goes. (I say that because I don't explain things
as clearly as some others do).

Bookshare has automatic stripper (which we all keep hoping will strip itself
and disappear). It's intended to automatically delete headers, but it
doesn't do a very good job of that. It's intended, I think, to take out
words that are repeated exactly, on the first line, and so it will delete
the word Chapter unless something is put on the line in front of the word. I
think it takes out page numbers if the header is on the same line. So we who
scan or validate usually remove the headers by oursleves, put a line space
and then the page number and then another space, and thus, because the page
number is always different on every page, the word chapter, which is usually
a couple of lines below the page number, is preserved.

HTH
