Re: Frame insists on adding empty page

["Carol J. Elkins" <celkins@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Mary,

This happens often to me and is really frustrating. I usually go through 
the same hoops you described. I have become superstitious now and use the 
following settings to help prevent this (note that this is not the normal 
way to manage files at the book level; it is just the way that works best 
for me):

1. In the individual files, I define my pagination preferences.
2. At the book level, I set pagination to "Read from File" and "Next 
Available Page." This prevents FrameMaker from trying to think for me; it 
lets me have control, not Frame. You give up a degree of convenience doing 
it this way, however.

When I have a problem with Frame making the page count even against my 
instructions, I inevitably discover one of two things:
1. The pagination in a nearby file accidentally was changed, forcing Frame 
to make the page count even in another file.
2. I accidentally imported another file's document settings and the book 
level pagination is no longer set to Read from File.

Hope this helps.

Carol
