1. View > Master Pages. 2. Special > Add Master Page. 3. Name your new page "First" or similar. 4. If your new master will share some characteristics (margins, size & location of header/footer frames, etc.) with your Left or Right pages, then Copy from one of them; otherwise choose Empty. 5. Modify the new master page to suit your purpose; don't add a page number variable. 6. Format > Customize Layout > Master Page Usage: select your new Custom master page and apply it to page 1. 7. Format > Page Layout > Pagination: choose Double Sided and Before Saving & Printing, Make Page Count Even. I don't understand your phrase, "(unused) Body view show 2 pages"...
