[Suzanne S. Barnhill]

Lucky you. I'm in a similar position and wouldn't trade it for anything!

Yes, but joy of joys, I'm the chief editor and designer here, so it's ME
who
gets to make that call.

Martin:

You have gotten good advice, but I'd like to add my approach as well.

We define our chapters as being in separate, odd-page sections. In the
final
preprint check, we look for the unwanted "blank" verso pages, and
insert a
manual page break before the section break.

This forces a header an footer to appear on the verso page, but no
other
text.

Also, I'm considering abandoning this approach all together and being
satisfied with blank verso pages, since (as Suzanne says) this is a
well-established and supported convention.

(I find that many of the contortions I forced Word to perform when I
was a
novice are not actually required. I think the designers knew more
about
publications than I did.)
