. Chapters always start on the right hand side.
How can I turn it off? I don't want to have empty pages. I don't care on which side starts new chapter.

Use the document class option
openany
or consider using thereport
class instead, where this is the default.There are two related document class options:
openright
: makes chapters begin on right hand pages, default for thebook
classopenany
: makes chapters begin on the next available page, default for thereport
classAlso the margins are differently treated in
book
andreport
, which can be customized by options:twoside
: double sided output style, for different inner and outer margin, default for thebook
classoneside
: single sided output, for equal left and right margin, default for thereport
class and forarticle
.The default behavior can be changed by specifying such an option when loading the class, for example
Besides the standard classes, further classes support these options, such as
amsbook
,scrbook
,screprt
andmemoir
. These classes may support further options, such asopenleft
inmemoir
