Force odd or even page

Post by tika-tika »

Does anyone know a way to force a certain page style to start on an odd or even page? I have two instances in which I need this (both related to double sided printing:

1. I always want a chapter to start on an odd page (on the right).
2. I have some multi-page tables that I want to always start on an even page, so it will be on the left and right pages when open.

Any advice is appreciated. As it is, the only thing I can think of is going over the whole thing before final print, but it only takes one page to be out and then everything will be messed up.

It seems to me that this type of thing is one of the ways that Mellel can cater specifically to writers, making it distinct from general purpose word processors. if the feature is not there somewhere, what would be required is that the first page of the page style have an option on "different first page" to "force odd" or "force even".
