TOPLEAF: Blank page added after contents in V7 output

[jlm05]

We're still testing generating PDFs using XMetal7 and the updated plugin.

In our stylesheets, none of the page layouts are configured to be double-sided – there are no left/right pages.

In the V7 output, if the table of contents does not have an even number of pages, then an “intenationally-blank” page is being added after the contents and before the next section, the preface.

We didn't see this happening in the V6 output, and looking through our V6 stylesheets I can't seem to find a setting that would do that.

Any ideas as to why this extra page is being added?

Thanks,

Janice

Did you check for a command in the pre-content of MakeToC or endTOC? In the latest default stylesheet, this command appears in the pre-content of mappings for gloassarylist, appendix, chapter, index, part, toc, endRoman, endToC, and MakeToC. If you remove all of those commands or comment them out, I think that would fix the issue.

Thanks – that worked.

Strange that we didn't see the same behavior in V6 – the settings were the same.
