Page Layout ⇒ Insert blank Page after ToC and LoF

[laailalalaa]

Hello,

I'm trying to insert a blank page after \tableofcontents and \listoffigures, but the following code doesn't work (in a book, one-side printed style):

Code: Select all

\tableofcontents
\cleardoublepage
\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}
\mbox{}

\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{List of figures}
\listoffigures
\cleardoublepage
\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}
\mbox{}

\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{List of tables}	
\listoftables

Anyone knows how to fix (replace) this?

Thanks

Hello laailalalaa,

In \documentclass{book} you need to add the commands \newpage and \thispagestyle{empty} after the \tableofcontents in order to obtain a new blank page.

Code: Select all

\documentclass{book}

\begin{document}

\tableofcontents

\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}

\listoffigures
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{List of figures}

\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}

\listoftables
\addcontentsline{toc}{section}{List of tables}

\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}

\section{Test}

\begin{figure}[htbp]
	\centering
		FIGURE
	\caption{figure caption}
	\label{label}
\end{figure}

\begin{table}[htbp]
	\centering
		TABLE
	\caption{table caption}
	\label{tab:caption}
\end{table}

\end{document}

If the article style is used the newpage command followed by \listoffigures will create the list of figures in the previous page. You need to add an extra page so the list of figure will be placed at that.

Code: Select all

\tableofcontents

\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}
\hspace{1cm}
\newpage

\listoffigures
