If you do not wish to have blank pages after chapters throughout the document, you should be using the openany
option for the documentclass. The following gives a two page document with no blank pages
\documentclass[openany]{book}
\begin{document}
\chapter{A Chapter}
\appendix
\chapter{Appendix}
\end{document}
When using the oneside
option this happens already, and the opposite option openright
has no effect. The reason for this is that the openright
option asks the chapter and other commands to use \cleardoublepage
, but \cleardoublepage
acts as \clearpage
for oneside
documents.
If you wish to have blank pages after chapters in the body of the document, but not in the appendices, then the simplest way is as follows: use standard two side formatting and switch the value of the openright
option at the appendix:
\documentclass{book}
\begin{document}
\chapter{A Chapter}
\chapter{Another Chapter}
\cleardoublepage\makeatletter\@openrightfalse\makeatother
\appendix
\chapter{Appendix}
\chapter{Another Appendix}
\end{document}
However, you say you are using the oneside
option, perhaps for other formatting effects. Should you wish to keep that, then we need to redefine \cleardoublepage
so as not to test for the twoside
option:
\documentclass[oneside]{book}
\makeatletter
\renewcommand{\cleardoublepage}{\clearpage \ifodd\c@page\else
\hbox{}\newpage\if@twocolumn\hbox{}\newpage\fi\fi}
\makeatother
\begin{document}
\chapter{A Chapter}
\chapter{Another Chapter}
\cleardoublepage\makeatletter\@openrightfalse\makeatother
\appendix
\chapter{Appendix}
\chapter{Another Appendix}
\end{document}
Moving appendix material to an external file and using \input
will lead to the same results.
In general:
To reset arabic pagenumbering use \pagenumbering{arabic}
which sets the next page number to 1.
To set the pagenumber to 0 use \setcounter{page}{0}
So for your case try:
end of volume 1
\clearpage
\pagenumbering{arabic}
\setcounter{page}{0}
start of volume 2
I think that starting your second volume with page number 0 will strike the reader as unusual, particularly if the document is printed two-sided and the even numbered pages appear on the right and the odd ones on the left.
Best Answer
Try using this for your style document
the default option is
openright
instead ofopenany
, and that will remove your blank pages.EDIT :
I deleted
\usepackage{frbib}
and replaced your last lines byIt works just fine, so your problem should come from
\input{app1/app1.tex}
.
