Page Layout ⇒ Start Sections on odd Pages in two-sided Article

[Sievers]

Hi guys!

I'm trying to make my sections start on the right page.

I'm using the document class scrartcl class from KOMA-Script with the twoside option. I added it because I was under the impression it would automatically assign all sections to begin on right pages. It does however not. The only other lines in my preamble that I can see has anything to do with the page layout relating to this issue are:

Code: Select all

\setpapersize{A4}
\setmargins{3.5cm}{1.5cm}{14.7cm}{23.42cm}{14pt}{1cm}{0pt}{2cm}
\defpagestyle{cb}{%
(\textwidth,0pt)% 
{\pagemark\hfill\headmark\hfill}% doublesided, left page
{\hfill\headmark\hfill\pagemark}% doublesided, right page
%{\hfill\headmark\hfill\pagemark}%  onesided
(\textwidth,1pt)}%

Your help is much appreciated!

Thanks

Forget the code fragment you presented and do not use the obsolete vmargin package. Just let »typearea« from KOMA-Script do the job of page construction. Regardless of that I see two options.

1. Put each section in a separate file and include them with the \include command.
2. Insert a \cleardoublepage command after every section as shown below.

   Code: Select all

   \documentclass[twoside,english]{scrartcl}
   \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
   \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
   \usepackage{babel}
   \usepackage{blindtext}
   
   \begin{document}
     \blinddocument
     \cleardoublepage
   
     \blinddocument
   \end{document}

   The classes of KOMA Script offer more stuff to control page breaks. See the manual for details.

Adding a \cleardoublepage was exactly what I needed! Thank you very much!
