Thanks, spent all morning trying to get that to work :)

The only problem I have left is that where I have set the very first
character of the very first paragraph to be 50% bigger than everything
else, with register true turned on, this causes an extra blank line to be
added beneath the first line. This enlarged letter has been done with a
character style. Any ideas on how this can be fixed (other than removing
the big capital or turning off register true)?

     This is known as a Drop cap.
As a style, create a new paragraph style that is linked with the paragraph style you are presently using. Use the DropCap tab (page) of the new paragraph style to set the characteristics you want.

Hi,

Firstly, thanks for all the replies about my blank page question. That is
all working nicely, however, I am now stuck trying to get writer to
insert
a blank line before a paragraph. It is important it is *exactly* a line
as
otherwise the baseline of the text on the opposite page won't line up.


Aligning baselines are not done by inserting a line, but by using the
feature "Register
true".

Kind regards
Regina


       This is a very nice thing to know. I did not know it was possible.

       Using the Page style to select this feature:
1) Right click the page style being used.
2) Select Modify.
3) Click the Page tab.
4) "Register true" has a check box (tick box?) which is third down in the
Layout section.
