Hello!
I remember this problem from ms office word 2000. First of all you have
to check all your page and paragraph styles. There should be an option
to insert blank pages before style or after. In ms word, for instance,
the same behaviour occured when use insert page break in paragraph which
have option page break before, like Heading 1 or something like this.
Then it was vary complicated to find this issue.
Other option you can try is to uncheck Print automatically inserted
pages under writer print options (Tools - Options menu).
Third, from my experience - using of frames, graphics and other things
anchored to page, not as characters always leads to crash both in
msoffice and openoffice (and openoffice is much more stable regarding
this issue).
Good luck!

I'm not printing at all and I'm not changing printer drivers. I update
all the indexes so that the Table of Contents, and all other tables of

total pages, say 237. Then I export to a PDF. When you export to a PDF,
it says at the bottom that it is repaginating (why, I don't know). When
it does this it typically inserts blank pages at different places so
that the total page count is larger than 237. Thus the pdf is created
with all the indexes WRONG. I can't believe no one else has seen this.
This happens on two different linux computers, one running FC5 (OOo
2.02) and the other running FC6 (OOo 2.04). I cannot get the PDF to be
created without screwing up the indexes. This means that all the
automatic features using fields for table of contents etc. are virtually
useless. I need as the final output a pdf.
I have no idea why this odd behavior occurs. I have used frames a lot
(I've inserted each figure, table, and listing into it's own frame and
captioned the frame - it makes it easier to move things around. Could
the use a frames be the problem?) I have some very wide tables on
landscape pages. It seems to want to insert pages before the landscape
pages (but not just there at other places too).
I'm beginning to think that OOo is not really useable - at least not for
large documents.
