Remove page numbers from extractFileText

Hi,

Is there a way to use extractFileText to read in a document but not import the page numbers?

Thx

If the file to be imported is uniformly page numbered, then its page numbers can be detected and removed using the fcn - detectimportoptions() to detect as text headers:

thats more for tabular data and doesn't really apply to 'extractFileText'
