Using the book
class with the twoside
option, I get chapters that start on right/odd pages, which is the expected behavior.
Still, I would like to have some specific chapters starting on a left/even page. Is there a way to achieve this?

Best Answer
the
book
class provides theopenright
switch, which is "on" by default. if you want to have a chapter start on the left, just before the\chapter
command, insertmake sure this is in the same file as the
\chapter
command. if the chapter is in a separate file, accessed by\include
, and the "don't open right" code is in the main file before the\include
, the code will be delayed until after the\include
d file has been read and processed.to reset the right-opening mode, do just the opposite:
this can be made into a pair of commands, perhaps
\OpenLeft
and\OpenRight
.
