Hi,

I'm looking for a way to have regularly paginated empty (image) pages in the
flow of the text. This sounds simpler than it is and I hope to achieve it
without tweaking. Here's what I'm trying to do:

Somewhere on page 123 a photo is mentioned, somewhere on page 125 another
photo is mentioned. The next following whole page (e.g. 126) should contain
the two pictures. This should work even if the reference to the second
picture (due to newly inserted text) is now on page 126 (then the image page
should be on 127). Page numbering should continue through the whole
document. I expect to have several such image pages in the document, with
one to three images each.

So far the only way I see is waiting until the text is final and then
messing around with forced page breaks and numbering. Are there any better
ways?

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Hi again,

excuse me for replying to my own posting, yet at least I found a workaround
and this might interest other readers. It is actually just a tweak which may
only be applied at a stage where there are no more other edits to the text.

I now add a drawing canvas with (at least) the same size as the whole body
text frame on the page following the mention. Text flows regularly (without
breaks) on the page preceding the drawing canvas page and continues on the
page following the drawing canvas page. It kinda works.

Now if only I could anchor the drawing canvas to a paragraph on the
preceding page. Yet, I see no anchor and even if I would, I haven't figured
out a way to anchor something to paragraphs on other pages than the actual
frame.

I just thought I share this. If somebody comes up with a solution to my
initial problem I would still welcome it.
