Well sir I am a total beginner to the commands. So I really have no idea what you mean. If you could give an example for some more info it would really be helpful. Thanks for replying though.
No sir. We are not here to do your homework for you. (And those who posted full solutions to your homework problem are subject to infractions for giving inappropriate responses to homework questions.) The suggestion bakunin made is well worth your attention. We all assume that you should know about the man utility and that the command:
would give you guidance on how to use the sed utility.
As you have already found out, removing lines from the middle of a set of lines to be printed just using head and tail in a single pipeline is, at best, tricky. (I didn't get enough sleep last night to say it is impossible, but a way to do it this way is not immediately obvious to me.)
Use and complete the template provided. The entire template must be completed. If you don't, your post may be deleted!

mkcover
MKCOVER(8) System Manager's Manual MKCOVER(8)NAME
mkcover - HylaFAX continuation cover page generation command
SYNOPSIS
/var/spool/hylafax/bin/mkcover qfile template result
DESCRIPTION
bin/mkcover is the command invoked by the facsimile server when a continuation cover page is required for an outbound job that is about to
be retried. It generates a single POSTSCRIPT(R) page that is imaged according to the remote capabilities and transmitted as the cover
page. The arguments are:
qfile the job description file for the outbound job.
template the cover page template file, as used by the faxcover(1) program.
result the filename where the resultant POSTSCRIPT document should be written.
The default mkcover command is a shell script that uses awk(1) to parse the job description file and generate the cover page document. The
template file may be optionally compressed with compress(1), pack(1), or gzip(1); the filename suffix is used to decide whether or not the
template file contains compressed data.
