Hm. When I enter alt-n, n, p into a document, the page number after it is 
enumerated right after the page number preceding the code. It sounds to me as 
though you’re describing an “insert blank page” code.

There is a distinct difference between a page break, inserted with either 
Ctrl+Enter or ALT+N,B, and a blank page, which is inserted using ALT+N,NP.

The page break is just that, a single page break which splits the current page 
such that the line directly below the insert point is forced to the top of the 
next page.  You end up with a partial blank page just below the insert point.

The blank page command actually inserts 2 page breaks.  The first does what a 
conventional page break does.  The second page break forces the line that had 
been just below the original insert point down one page further, thus it 
guarantees that you will actually have a full blank page between the line above 
and the line below the insert point.
