I agree with Mike. Having garbled page headers is, IMO, less annoying than
NOT having page and chapter numbers in tact. Plus I like to have a better
idea of what and how much text the print page contains, and knowing where it
begins and ends, even if marked by a garbled header, gives me that
information. It does not take so much additional time to listen to a few
extra words/characters, usually.
