Odd-Even Page Layout and Blank Pages
Hi, folks:
I have a document that is set up in chapters requiring different headers and footers on odd and even pages. So, I've set the document up with Different Odd/Even in the header/footer option enabled. As you well know, when a section ends on an odd page, a blank page prints out afterward. This page is visible only in Print Preview mode. Two questions. 1) Is it possible to suppress that extra blank page on those chapters ending on odd pages? (I imagine not...) 2) If it's not possible to suppress it, is it possible to format the header/footer on that blank page to conform with the remainder of the chapter, so that it's not merely a blank page? For example, could I somehow "force" a page number into that footer and a title onto the header? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Cheers! Alison -- Alison |

Odd-Even Page Layout and Blank Pages
"Different odd and even" alone won't force blank pages. If you're restarting
numbering at 1 in each section, it will. Or if you've inserted Odd Page Breaks, this alone will do it. If you're not restarting numbering, make sure your section breaks are "Next Page" rather than "Odd Page."

Odd-Even Page Layout and Blank Pages
Yes, I have restarted page numbering at 1 in each section and need to keep it
that way. And my section breaks are "Next Page." So, it sounds like there's no way around this extra blank page. Given that, is there any way to format the blank pages -- to insert header/footer information in them so they at least conform to the section that they end? -- Alison "Suzanne S.

Hey, Suzanne:
Sorry for the delayed reply. This worked like a charm! Thanks SO MUCH for the information. Have a great weekend! -- Alison "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Whoops!
