Extra page in non-numbered chapter

Post by Jongomez »

In my "book" class document I am using for non- numbered chapter:

tableofcontents

\chapter*{Introducción}
\markright{\MakeUppercase{Introducción}}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Introducción}
\input{sections.tex/Introducción}

That works ok for the header. BUT before the page "Introducción" with its corresponding text: Prefacio bla..bla..bla, I get en EXTRA-PAGE which only contains the title "Introducción".

Note.- I have also proved with the command "\include{sections.tex/Inroducción}", instead of \input{sections.tex/Introducción}, but the result is the same with the extra-page.
Can anyone let me know how to eliminate the extra-page.

Thank you for your help.

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

Hi Jon,

by default, a book class document starts chapters on right-hand pages. So, an empty page may be inserted to achieve this.

To change this, you can set the openany option.
