BOOK: Generate ALWAYS makes page count even

[_VLM_]

Hi everyone,

Using FM8.0.4 on Win XP Pro SP3.

I create a set of documents. In each document, I set the pagination to "Delete Empty Pages". I put all the documents into a book. In the book file, I set the pagination property for each document to "Delete Empty Pages". I check each of these settings.

I generate the book/TOC. EVERY document in the book now has an extra page on the end (an even-page-count page), and every document's individual setting is reset to "Make page count even".

I have repeated this process at least a dozen times, reconstituted the entire book and the TOC repeatedly, faced east and prayed, etc. There must be a setting somewhere that I just haven't found yet.

Help, please. :):)

Thank you kindly,
Elchanan

You need to check the "Start On" pagination setting of the component file in the book _after_ the one you're working on. If the following component file is set to open on a Right page, a blank page is added at the end of the preceding file to make it happen.

Remember that you need to set the pagination for all the files in the book file -- settings there trump the individual files' settings.

Thanks Art. That was the setting I sought, works perfectly now.

Best regards,
