--> The simplest way to suppress this behavior is to specify XSLT
stylesheet parameter two-sided=no (which in fact, is the default).

See
http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/xsltParams.html#xsltParams__two-sided

For example, please compare:

http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/manual.pdf

which is double-sided, and hence has its chapters starting on the next
odd page, to:

http://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/_distrib/doc/manual/manual-fop.pdf

which is single-sided, and hence has its chapters starting on any new
page, whether even or odd.



--> If you want to see how it's coded, please take a look at
DITAC_install_dir/xsl/fo/pagination.xsl.

The template of interest being:
---
  <!-- configurePageSequence ====================================== -->

  <xsl:template name="configurePageSequence">
    <!-- The context node is the element (titlePage, toc,
         chapter, etc) which is the head of this page sequence. -->

    <xsl:param name="sequenceName" select="''"/>
    <xsl:param name="frontmatterNames" select="()"/>
    <xsl:param name="bodyNames" select="()"/>
    <xsl:param name="backmatterNames" select="()"/>
    <xsl:param name="topicInfo" select="element()"/>
    <xsl:param name="documentTitle" select="''"/>
