Hi umesh,

You can do that quite simply with a series of wildcard Find/Replace actions. For example:
Find = You have [0-9]{1,} highlighted passages
Replace = nothing
Find = You have [0-9]{1,} notes
Replace = nothing
Find = • Delete this highlight • Undo deletion
Replace = nothing
Find = B000?@: Add a note
Replace = nothing
Find = Read more at location [0-9]{1,}
Replace = nothing

You could use the macro recorder to capture these as a macro.

Likewise with the paragraph spacing:
Find = ^13{2,}
Replace = ^p
