Hello,
Trying to use:
\startdocument
\startpagefigure[Coverpages.pdf][page=1]\stoppagefigure
\startpagefigure[Coverpages.pdf][page=2]\stoppagefigure
% before
\startmakeup [titlepage]
front
\stopmakeup
\startmakeup [titlepage]
back
\stopmakeup
\startfrontmatter
...
\stopfrontmatter
...
\stopdocument
inserts a "blank" page (with header/footer) between the two Coverpages
and a second "blank" page after the backside title page.
Not including the two \startpagefigure lines eliminates the blank page
following the back side title page (and the other one between the two
Coverpages, of course).
This is not a MWE as it occurs in a complicated project but not in mwe
snippets.
I suspect that this artifact is somehow related to the page={...}
settings later in the document. How can I turn OFF all automatic page
generation settings for the very beginning of my document? Any ideas?
(Title page makeup has always been somewhat of a mystery to me.)
Add "doublesided=no" to your makeup settings.
Wolfgang
