When I have a multi-page pdf with an odd number of pages the first page prints and the back is blank.  For example, I just printed a 7-page pdf and the printer prints pages 2-3, 4-5, and 6-7 as 2-sided and page 1 has a blank back page.  Why does this happen?  I am on an Apple computer

Generally, the mechanics of how your document will be printed are controlled by the printer driver and settings of the printer, not the PDF file or Acrobat.

 

File / Print and check the settings in the printer dialogue box. You might have to drill down a bit to find a setting that controls this.
