Yes, but please ensure that all page headers are at line 1 and followed
by a blank line after any normalization steps. If instead of the page
header, the book has page footers, pls ensure that the footer is on the
very bottom line of the page and is preceeded by at least one blank line.

Thanks Lisa. I wasn't sure if there was a way to do them all at once so
it's good to know the process for getting rid of them individually.
