Thanks for the reply...My first page was a title page- a default style
page. I
did not want a page number on it, and I wanted the next page to be a
page 1. I
used default for my title because if I use "first page" style, the next
page
will be page 2. So I created my own style, I called it "text" style.
It starts
with page 1. But now there is an unseen blank page between the title
page and
page 1.
In another instance, I am trying to format a book. I have a title page
which I
used "first page" style. And then I use a default page style for the
copyright
page and the table of contents. Then another default page and then a
"blank
page" style for the first chapter page. Then I use left and right page
styles.
_The unseen blank page appears at the very front of the document- before
the
first page._
This throws me off because I have to have a certain specific number of
pages to
finally save in a PDF format. And it throws me off in the other first
instance
because that (just a paper) will also be sent electronically. Otherwise
I would
just grin and bear it and remove the blank page when I print.
Thanks for any suggestions, helps.
