Page Numbering in section starts on right page.
Hello
I am writing a book.
On Pages I have checked these options:
Document:
Facing Pages, so the first page, which is the cover, is on the right
Headers & Footers:
Left and right pages are different
Match previous section
Page Numbering:
Continue from previous section
Section starts on Right Page
Now, I write chapter 1, the last page is page 8, on the left. I create a new section, page 9, on the right. So, everything is normal.
Chapter 2 ends in page 15, which is a page on the right. I create a new section, and automatically Pages starts it on the right, inserting a blank page on the left.
First of all, the blank page has not a page number, but it is not the worst. The thing that drives me crazy is that the first page of the chapter is numbered 16 and not 17. That thing is really stupid! Have someone ever reads a book with page 16 on the right?
Obviously I can create a new page on the end of the chapter, so the first of the new one will be 17, but it means if I make some change in the previous section, the blank page may become a right page, and the app would have create a new blank page in order to start the new chapter on the right, so I go back to the same issue. I would need to check every chapter anytime I will make a change in a previous section. For 15 pages, it is OK, for 500 pages and 60 or 70 chapters, that's suck.
So, is there a solution?
Thank you.
