Book Pagination Issue
Look at it this way. FrameMaker emulates the real world. In the example below ch1 finishes on an even page, and ch2 starts on the right ch1 1-2, 3-4, 5-6 ch2 7-8, 9-10, 1-12 If you decide to have no blank pages ch1 finishes in this example on the right and ch2 starts on the left ch1 1-2, 3-4, 5 ch2 6-7, 7-8, 9-10 What you can't have is a one sided piece of paper. That is, all sheets of paper have two sides. It is a physical impossibility to have a piece of paper with only one side and FrameMaker cannot be allowed to permit such a thing when setting up pagination rules.

Book Pagination Issue
Hi All, I was simply wondering if it is possible to have the first page of every chapter in a book begin on the right side, and yet not have FM insert an empty page at the end of the previous chapter. I've tried several things including setting the files in the book to start on Next Available Page and to Delete Empty Pages. This removes the empty page but assigns the 1st Page Side to left in the pagination properties of the subsequent chapter.

RE: Book Pagination Issue
Hi Fabio, In all of my manuals, every chapter starts on the right page. If there is not enough material on the last (left) page of the previous chapter, only the header and footer display, the rest of that page is blank. In my document template, I created a master page for the first page, then left and right page masters. Set your Format Page Layout Pagination dialog box to: * Double Sided * 1st Page Side: Right * Before Saving Printing: Make Page Count Even Try that, it should work for you.

Re: Book Pagination Issue
I was simply wondering if it is possible to have the first page of every chapter in a book begin on the right side, and yet not have FM insert an empty page at the end of the previous chapter. Yes. It's possible. In pagination, select single-sided, instead of double-sided. Then every page becomes a righthand page! But, as long as you choose double-sided, FrameMaker has to insert a blank page after chapters that end on a righthand page, because the back of that page counts as a page, too.
