No author and their publisher wants to publish a blank page, either do I. In my previous question, I have provided the sample page of the opening of \part and the opening of chapter as well \chapter as well. The layout of the book is like this:

  1. The left part of the opening of the \part
  2. The right part of the opening of the \part
  3. (blank)
  4. The opening of the \chapter

While I was wondering if input some text into such page 3, a new blank spread is created rather than just used up the blank page. For example,

  1. The left part of the opening of the \part
  2. The right part of the opening of the \part
  3. Some text such as prelude
  4. (blank)
  5. (blank)
  6. The opening of the \chapter

This does not fulfill my original idea, and creates more empty pages.

For one may though a MWE useful, please see below.

\documentclass[12pt,a4paper,headinclude,openright]{scrbook}
\usepackage{scrpage2}
\begin{document}
\part{SMAPLE}
Some text
\chapter{SAMPLE}
Some content...
\end{document}

  • Are you looking for open=any? – Johannes_B Jun 11 '14 at 08:10

    Most authors and their publishers publish empty pages nevertheless against their will. Verso pages are almost universally left blank. – percusse Jun 11 '14 at 08:37
  • I am sorry that I did not aware of that, my motivation of this question comes from the three pages are decorated, but one page is blanked will become odd compare to the pages beside it. In addition, I want to make a dictum/ prelude on the "blank" page. – SHY.John Jun 11 '14 at 08:49
  • @percusse By the way, the publication will be a desktop one, not printed. However, I am not regarding what you have commented previously in purpose. – SHY.John Jun 11 '14 at 08:51
  • @Johannes_B I just forgot I have used openright, sorry. – SHY.John Jun 11 '14 at 08:53

You can redefine \partheademptypage

\documentclass{scrbook}
\renewcommand*\partheademptypage{\thispagestyle{empty}}
\usepackage{scrpage2}
\pagestyle{scrheadings}
\begin{document}
\part{SMAPLE}
Some text
\chapter{SAMPLE}
Some content...
\end{document}
