How do I delete the blank pages that comes automatically?

Post by Yue »

I am using document class memoir and the chapters always start at a page with an odd page number. E.g. chapter 1 ends at page 3, but chapter 2 starts at page 5, with page 4 totally blank. My assignment must max be 30 pages so I need to use the blank pages.
Thank you in advance.

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

I've not used the memoir class, but it sounds like you are using some sort of "two page" or double sided option which forces a new chapter to start on a right-hand (ie. odd) page.

Try forcing it to be single sided.

Read Section 1.3 (Printing options, p. 4) of the memoir manual. Pay special attention to the openany option for the document class.
