The reason for the blank lines is that you are telling AW+ to insert them by
making your page length 66 lines long.  ^Y = 132 means that page length is
is 66 lines long (^Y = 0 similarly tells it no page length which should be
an error).  You need to set ^Y = 66x# of pages or maybe ^Y = 999.  And you
are correct that a ^H in the text will give you a header or page # depending
upon how you do it.
