Text Formatting ⇒ Remove blank page

[mike1264]

Hi,
For a book layout I am trying to publish a 'copyright page' on a left page and a 'table of contents' on a right page. At the moment my code prints a title page (right) [correct] then adds an empty interleaf page (left) [wrong] then the copyright page (right) [wrong] and a table of contents (left) [wrong]. Can anyone suggest a way of getting rid of the interleaf page?

Use only one titlepage environment for the titlepage and the copyright page and insert \clearpage and \thispagestyle{empty} between them:

Hi Elke,

Thank you very much indeed. Your suggestion works brilliantly!

Much appreciated,
Mike

[mike1264]

Elke,
One small question - how do I insert a blank page before a 'part' page in the same document?

Thanks,
Mike

[esdd]

If the part page should be a right hand page:

Code: Select all

1
2
3
4
5
...
\cleardoubleoddpage
\part{Part title}
%\cleardoubleoddpage 
...
