Extra un-numbered page inserted in section breaks - HELP!
I am trying to create a doc in Word 2007 with tables that appear in landscape
while most of text is portrait. When I print duplex, it leaves the back side of a page blank rather than print the other layout - i.e. instead of portait front/landscape back it will do portrait front/ blank back, then start landscape on new page. AND when it does this it keeps the page numbering, so that I wind up with even-numbered pages facing up (it will print p.19/blank, then p.20 facing up, for e.g.). I have tried the fixes I could find posted here and elsewhere, to no avail. I have lost hours of work time on this. HELP! (please...). -- wmaples |

Extra un-numbered page inserted in section breaks - HELP!
The bottom line is that printers are lazy. They find landscape printing
taxing and printing landscape and portrait on the same (duplexed) sheet even more difficult. To accommodate their laziness, Word will change your Next Page section break to an Odd Page break. You can sometimes change this by going to the Layout tab of Page Setup and changing the section start type. If this doesn't work, it is usually because you have restarted numbering at 1 in the new section, and Word will (quite reasonably) insist on making this an odd page. -- Suzanne S.
