Most likely because you have the following chapter set to start on a right hand page, and the content of the previous chapter ends on a right hand page. The blank page must be inserted so there will be a left hand page between them. It's also possible that the last page is not in fact blank. If it has even an empty pgf mark or end-of-flow mark, it will not be deleted. Nor if it has a custom master page applied will it be deleted. > > > Is there a problem with the template, or is FrameMaker notorious for > generating blank pages after updating?
