Letting chapters free to start on left pages (in book class)

Post by ruudvh »

Ello,

I would like to have my backmatter chapters not leave an empty page to start on a right page. these chapters (acknowledgements, publication list, cv etc) are often 1 or 3 pages long, so I would like the next one to start on the page immediately after, also if this is a left page. I am using the book class.

Thanks,
Ruud

Put this just before the first chapter in the backmatter:

Code: Select all

\makeatletter\@openrightfalse\makeatother
