Hey,
I'm trying to create a layout for my thesis in Writer. I know how to
work (reasonably well) with page/paragraph styles.
My problem is this: I have to hand in my thesis with only one side of
the page printed, the back has to be blank.
I would modify the default style with correct margins, footers, and
styles I need. I suspect you have a different left and right margin,
once this is set it will be the same for all pages. The page numbers
will be correct and you will not need to modify them for printing. When
you print you should be able print using your printer defaults for
one-sided printing.
Under Format>>Page using the Page tab you can set your margins as
needed. For example in the US the left margin is often 1.5 inches with
all the other margins set to 1 inch for a thesis.
I thought I cloud cheat by only using right page styles, because Libre
inserts a blank page when two even or odd page follow one another. But
these blank pages change my page count. It is true that I actually
have more pages than the written ones but it shouldn't show in my page
number.
You do not need to use right page styles.
I tried correcting the page number - but I can't figure out how. With
each new page the number of blank pages increases - so the fifth page
should have the page number 3 (3 written pages plus two blank ones)
while the ninth page should have the page number 5 (5 written pages
plus 4 blanks).
Is there an easier way to accomplish my goal? Or does anybody have an
idea how I can correct my page number/count?
Any hints would be appreciated! Thank you for your time!
Regards
Sylvia
