Page Layout ⇒ A blank page added before an arabic abstract

[nadaa]

Hi,

I am working on a thesis which I need to add Arabic abstract at the end of the document after the bibliography.
The problem is when I include the Arabic abstract in the main tex file. a new blank page is created before the abstract. (Note: I tried to include the English abstract instead and it works fine).

Hi Nadaa,

perhaps don't include as external file, but copy it right into the document instead. Like this:

\include always makes a page break. Perhaps your document is set up to open new pages at right hand sides, with odd numbers, so a page is inserted to accomplish that. You can insert \newpage or \clearpage yourself, before the abstract.

Thanks a lot Stefan for your ongoing help!
I tried \clearpage & \newpage before \begin{abstract} but didn't work. However, inserting the abstract into the main worked perfectly!.
