show/hide section depending on number of pages in section
any ideas on how to do this?
Our template prints double sided, however depending on customisations, section 1 is either 2 pages or 3 pages. If it's 3 pages then I need to add a 4th page (blank - and also a new section) before the printing continues on to the next section. |

Check the Insert Break options: you can specify Even/Odd page section
breaks. "ivory_kitten" wrote in message ... any ideas on how to do this? Our template prints double sided, however depending on customisations, section 1 is either 2 pages or 3 pages.

This does not work, it does update the page numbers, but does not include a
blank page when printing. "Jezebel" wrote: Check the Insert Break options: you can specify Even/Odd page section breaks. "ivory_kitten" wrote in message ... any ideas on how to do this?

It doesn't show the blank page in Print layout, but it does in Print
Preview, and it will output a blank page to the printer. Unless your printer has a setting to ignore blank pages. "ivory_kitten" wrote in message ...

I did a Print Preview and it does not show a blank page before section 2, and
it definitely does not print out like that either, and our printer does not have that option. Let me make sure I am doing this correctly: My Section 1 has 3 pages and i want section 2 to start on page 5, so at the end of section 1 I insert a Section Break (Odd Page)?

show/hide section depending on number of pages in section
Ok, i figured out why it doesn't work!
Because I have page numbers for both the sections and section 2's page numbers start again at 1 (which is an odd number) it is not inserting the blank page, how do I have page numbers and have it leave a blank page in between? I'd imagine that using an even page break would mess up my page numbers?

show/hide section depending on number of pages in section
The trick for this is to to have the sections continue numbering from the
previous section, then use a little field trickery to get the page number display as you want it for the subsequent sections -- 1. Bookmark something on the first page of the section (such as the initial heading). 2. In place of your current page numbers, use a nested field: { = {PAGE} - { PAGEREF [BOOKMARK] } + 1 } "ivory_kitten" wrote in message ... Ok, i figured out why it doesn't work!
