Blank pages added to booklet

So I've seen this issue on here several times and the answer always comes back to checking the "Print Blank Printer Spreads" option in the "Print Booklet" dialogue. Well I've checked that and it's still doing it. It's adding two pages in the same places (pages 1 & 4) in every booklet project I have. I've tried resetting the preferences and that did nothing.
Any ideas?

I realised after posting this that it was due to the number of pages in the document not being divisible by four. This has resolved the issue. Big facepalm for me...

CS4 is adding a blank page, throwing off the printing

I am creating a 40-page booklet to be printed 2-up saddle-stitch
In the Pages layout, it says i have 40 pages in 21 spreads. 1 page on the top is the front cover and 1 page on the bottom is the back cover and 19 double-page spreads inbetween. Pages 2 and 39 are the respective inside covers. Page 1 is aligned on the right and page 40 is aligned on the left. It should be printing fine, I would think.
But in the Print Booklet-Preview Pane, it gives a message that it has added 1 blank page to creat the booklet, and it was added before page one, so I now have no back cover, and my inside covers and page layouts are all wonky now.
I noticed that in the Pages flyout there is a small square to the right of Page 40, where page 41 would be. A small square that I can't highlight.
A few more items of interest, all pages have both Allow Document Pages to Shuffle and Allow Selected Spreads to Shuffle checked.
I am at a total loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Keep in mind that everyone here is a volunteer. Most of the regulars, like myself, drop in at least once a day, as we have time, and offer advice and solutions when we have them.
That said, I saw your post when it first was listed, and saw that you seemed to finding your way, and didn't have anything more to add at that point, as I suspect was the case with a lot of others. I'm sorry it never occurred to me to ask if you had any blank pages in the document, but there was nothing in the original post to suggest that, and including blank pages in a booklet print job is a pretty standard thing to do. If you know enough to have already added blanks to fix the page count, one would presume you also know enough to include them in the print job.
As far as the forum organization, we're about to go into a new version of the forum software, and many of the regulars are looking on that with some trepidation. Most of us actually LIKE the way things are now -- functional and uncluttered with extraneous nonsense like avatars and ratings points -- but it seems much of that is going to be creeping in. An attempt to unify the Adobe and Macromedia forums last year was an utter disaster, and we've all got our fingers crossed it won't happen again, but we'll be living with it no matter what as the Webcrossing contract is up and Adobe has signed on with Jive. You might want to take another look when the changeover is complete.
And, I'll repeat, these forums are probably the BEST source of FREE and accurate expert information on Adobe applications on the planet. You'll find users (and even some Adobe employees) from all over the world with vast experience in some pretty esoteric and specialized techniques. I find I still learn something new almost every week, and I've been making my living with InDesign since version 2.0 was released. I hope you'll come back if you have more questions.

How to remove blank pages from WebI Report in view page layout option

Hi,
I am working in Business Objects XIR2 environment. I have a WebI report with several sections. I need to show the report as a book with 69 sections (each section on new page). there are 69 sections on cost center and each cost center section has almost 10 sections embedded in it. When i see in regular view - I only see 69 pages but when I try to see in "View Page Lay out" option, there is one blank page added after each results page.
Please let me know how to remove this blank page. I need to give users the option to download the book as PDF on to their machine. Now, when I download to my machine, I see one blank page after each results page.
Thanks in advance.

Jus convert your report in Page Layout mode and see if your first pafe is getting expand in the second page.
Now check if there are any cell going into second page.
- if there are any blank cell which is there after table.
you have to check formating very carefull.

InDesign keeps adding blank pages on the back cover of my booklet. How can I change that?

I used to have twelve pages in my book but when I added two pages to my booklet InDesign added in two blank pages with one of them being on the back cover. Is there a way to keep the page that should be on the back cover on the back?

Would it allow me to have a back cover if I made my book 16 pages? I did that and it is still giving me a blank back cover.
It should, but you must set the print dialog in the setup to include blank pages. Sounds like you've added your pages, but they are not being included, so ID thinks it's still a 14-page file.

I am trying to print a booklet. I have printed it several times without issue. Now when I print, it gives me one blank page or else 2 out of my 8 pages?

I am trying to print a booklet. I have printed it several times with no issues. Now when I try to print it (with no changes in the program) it will either give me a blank page or will print one of my pages (there are 8 pages total). Any help?

No I didn't even read through your post, to long.
You said that "No matter what program I try to install, as soon as the installer opens it crashes". Were you talking about the install for this/these 3D programs or ANY program? As it is worded it sounded like ANY program. That tells me there is a problem with your Mac, software or hardware.
Now you say others install programs, which is it. Programs other then the 3D ones install or no programs install?
Could simply be your Mac is to old to run these programs and the installer knows that. You never said what model or year Mac it is.

I have a running set of data in my Notes. I just added to 1 of my notes. When finished by mistake I clicked and not Done. So I clicked Done on the blank page. This brought me to Notes menu and the 1 I was working in is gone. I never hit delete.

I Have a running set of topics in my Notes. I just added to Note topic on iPhone 5. When I finished I mistakenly clicked + instead of Done. When I saw the blank page that appeared after the + click, I clicked Done. That brought me back to the menu of my notes - and the note topic I was working on was not there. Disappeared. At NO time did I click Delete. I have looked thru all my other note categories to see if some how the disappeared note was added to an existing note but it is not. After 3 or 4 minutes of looking around my iPhone notes, I checked my iPad Notes and the topic was missing from there also.
Any ideas where this Note topic went or how to recover? Or am I SOL???
THank you

After a week's worth of debugging, I found the issue.
The Java type returned from the call was defined as ArrayList. Changing it to List resolved the problem.
I'm not sure why ArrayList isn't a valid return type, I've been looking at the Adobe docs, and still can't see why this isn't valid. And, why it works in Debug mode and not in Release build is even stranger. Maybe someone can shed some light on the logic here to me.

Blank row added after cancel button on create page

Hi All,
I have a create item page where I insert items into the item table in the database.
On press of the cancel button on this create page, the control reaches a itemlist page with my old search criteria and result but with a new blank row added to it.
Anybody know what's wrong?

Sorry, I misunderstood your previous question. When the cancel button is pressed. I am using pageContext.forwardImmediately with parameters to forward back to my search page. Then in the search page controller I call the AM initQuery method to run the query. My initQuery method has the following code,
StringBuffer whereClause = new StringBuffer(200);
Vector parameters = new Vector(3);
int clauseCount = 0;
int bindCount = 0;
setWhereClauseParams(null);
if ((Program != null) && (!("".equals(Program.trim()))))
whereClause.append("PROGRAM = :");
whereClause.append(++bindCount);
parameters.addElement(Program);
clauseCount++;
if ((PId != null) && (!("".equals(PId.trim()))))
Number PIdNum = null;
try
PIdNum = new Number(PId);
catch(Exception e)
throw new OAException("AK", "FWK_TBX_INVALID_EMP_NUMBER");
if (bindCount > 0)
whereClause.append(" AND (P_ID = :");
else
whereClause.append(" (P_ID = :");
whereClause.append(++bindCount);
whereClause.append(")");
parameters.addElement(PIdNum);
clauseCount++;
setWhereClause(whereClause.toString());
if (bindCount > 0)
Object[] params = new Object[bindCount];
parameters.copyInto(params);
setWhereClauseParams(params);
executeQuery();

Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro adding a blank page on conversion from Word 2010

Hi, I'm hoping someone here can help. I'm converting a Word 2010 document to PDF using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (version 9.5.4). On conversion to PDF, a blank page is being added, throwing the entire report off. In word, there is a Section Break (Next Page) at the end of the first page, and the text continues on the second. On conversion, it is after this section break that the blank page apears (i.e., between pages 1 and 2 of the document). I've been back and forth through the document, tried to use a Continuous Section Break instead (Word just converts it to a page break again), making sure there's only one break, etc., and cannot for the life of me figure out how to fix this problem. Any ideas?
Thanks

Framemaker 8. Landscape Chapters adding blank page every other page.

Hi,
I am currently using FrameMaker 8 to create my book. I have multiple chapters, both Landscape and Portrait. I use Framescript > Scripts > Insert Reports to insert PDF documents into my chapters. I have an excel spreadsheet that has two columns code/pdf file name that the Framscript uses to insert the report. I insert a code into the chapter, and from that code it references the matching PDF file to insert.
I have been running this without any issues until now, because now in the Landscape chapters it is adding a blank page between all my pages. So every other page is blank. For example if the PDF file had 2 pages now I have 2 pages and 2 blank pages. On the blank page I do have a symbol (RS Report Spacer) that appears. I could delete it and the blank page goes away. But this can be troublesome since I have hundreds of pages and every time I run my book the blank pages will reappear.
I have tried Pagination to delete blank pages but to no avail. It does not delete the blank page. The weird part is that for my Portrait chapters this problem does not occur. I am writing this with a small glimmer of hope somebody can help me.
Thank you in advance,
Dan

Hello there @sirknite ,
I read your post about your printing out blank pages from your Windows 8 system however, this issue does not occur on another PC. In the details you have mentioned, it seems to be an issue with the software on your Windows 8 system, as the other computer does not have a problem. To test this theory, try printing from another program to see if blank pages will still print out. This way, we will know if the problem is originating in one specific program, or in the printer driver.
Skipping ahead a little bit, try running the Print and Scan Doctor. This diagnostic tool will check for any conflicts that could be causing the issue. The tool will show you a report at the end. If there was a problem that the tool could not fix, you will notice it in the results.
Try printing again, and if any blank pages still print out, try Uninstalling the Printer Software, restarting the computer completely, and download and reinstall the printer here: HP Photosmart Full Feature Software and Drivers
Please write me back with your findings and all of the results from your troubleshooting. Include which programs you have tested out and any other helpful information you may have came across.
Happy New Year!

Adding More than 30 Blank Pages in Editor

I have never had any trouble adding more than 30 blank pages in Photoshop Editor. Usually on page 29 or 30 instead of clicking add a blank page I'll click the option underneath it to add a blank page using that layout and it'll let me make blank page ad intinitum. Is there something I have to click or do? Jeannie

I don't think in Photoshop 8 PSE that you can create more
than 30 pages at a time. However in Photoshop 7 PSE you
can create page 31 if at page 30 you click create another blank
page using this format. But it does not work in Photoshop 8 unless
there is some answer other than this one.

I have a large document which keeps repaginating and adding blank pages. I can no longer use the print preview at all. I have tried all the usual fixes. Nothing works. Can anyone help?

I have a large document which keeps repaginating and adding blank pages. I can no longer use the print preview at all. I have tried all the usual fixes. Nothing works. Can anyone help?

Is your printer selected? <br />
Is '''Print to File''' selected, where the web page is being printed to a file and not being sent to your printer?
See the screenshot below.

Adding blank pages

I need to add a blank page (between 3 & 4) to my 109 page narrative with photos interspersed on the pages.
How can I do that? I have tried adding a "blank page" suggested in 'sections'. But it only added a page at the end.
Help!

Not sure which word processor you are using but they generally work the same way. Move the cursor to where you want to end page 3. Ususally under the Edit menu you can select Insert > Page Break. Then hit return a couple times and insert another page break.

Blank pages & partial pages in digital booklet

Hello, I cannot view all the pages in the most recent digital booklet I've purchased.
I changed the settings in Quick Time as suggested, but it didn't help.
Suggestions please?
Thank you

Since this is the InDesign forum you could do a couple of things in InDesign:
1. Use the Preflight in InDesign to detect blank pages.
2. Print a PostScript file with the option "Print Blank Pages" unticked, distill that to PDF and do your count on that.
Or you go to the Acrobat forum and ask there:
http://forums.adobe.com/community/acrobat/creating__editing_%26_exporting_pdfs?view=discus sions
Scripting Acrobat Pro could be an option:

Print Blank Page in Booklet

I am trying to print a blank page at the beginning and end of my booklet to make the page count 44 and to have a blank page at the beginning and end. However, if I don't have any artwork on the page it doesn't put the blank page in, and then tries to insert a blank page where it wants to to make an evenly divisible by 4 number of pages. I tried putting a paper colored box on the blank page, but that doesn't work. Any suggestions?

In Print Booklet you must also go to the Print Settings dialog and check Print Blank Pages in the print setup.
