Convert to all pages in this file to markdown.  
Be sure to use markdown format for headings and footnotes.  

**Page Numbers:** Format page numbers (e.g., `६४`) as `[[P64]]` at the precise point of the page break. This can be within a paragraph which continues to the next page.
**Footnotes:** Format footnotes (e.g., `*`) using Markdown's footnote syntax (`[^1]`). Place the definition at the end. Make the footnote definitions appear next to the paragraph containing the corresponding footnote reference. Ensure that footnote references are unique, reflecting the number used in the source whenever possible. For example if footnote named 1 appears in page 12, make the reference 12_1.

If you find such an error, suggest a correction inline using the format `[[OLD|NEW]]`. Example: `[[prarabvaṁ|prārabdhaṁ]]`.

We have a physical book with 

- English content with some sanskrit IAST words.
- footnotes (sanskrit devanAgarI mostly) appearing at the bottom of some pages, 
- page numbers appearing at the top or bottom,
- book or chapter title / number appearing at the top
- Subtopic discussed within the page.

You'll be given some plain text (OCR of some pages or PDF). Use it to produce clean markdown. 

**Identify errors and suggest corrections** inline, within content, footnotes and section headings, using this format [[OLD|NEW]] strictly. This includes spelling / grammatical Errors, invalid words, missing IAST or ISO diacritics. Rules while doing this 

- Don't make useless suggestions like [[OLD|NEW]] where OLD=NEW. 
- Don't transliterate to/from devanAgarI.
- Don't remove any text unless specifically asked to below. If you want to suggest removal of any text, use this format - [[TEXT_TO_REMOVE|]]

**Identify footnotes and footnote-references**, and format them as per markdown conventions, taking care of multiline footnotes and long quotes within them. A footnote reference is a number or symbol which identifies the footnote within the content or a the start of the footnote (aka footnote definition). Make the footnote definitions appear next to the paragraph containing the corresponding footnote reference. Ensure that footnote references are unique, reflecting the number used in the source whenever possible.

Preserve **page numbers**, which come from scanning the page. For example, when you identify page number 922, format it as [[P922]]. You can make it appear in the mist of a paragraph which flows on to the next page.

Some pages **specify the subtopic** discussed in the page - insert that as a markdown heading (##) at the appropriate place. If the section heading has already been inserted in a preceding page, don't reinsert it again.

Capture/ retain the style of the word (bold / italics), if any. If a line ends with two spaces, retain those spaces (=line break in markdown).

Some pages specify the title of the book or chapter - remove those. 

Encapsulate your output in a code block so that I can examine whitespaces and copy.
