I am using
%Masters/Doctoral Thesis
% LaTeX Template
% Version 2.5 (27/8/17)
which I downloaded here. Actually a very nice and helpful template. Nevertheless, I have an issue with the beginning of the document.
After every of these pages - Title page, TOC, Nomenclature, List of figures and List of tables - I have after compilation an empty page after every single of the described pages.
Actually I am more a user than a Latex command specialist and I would really appreciate your help.
Could you help with additional code fragments to avoid these described empty pages?
If the class in your template is called MastersDoctoralThesis, then this is based on the book class, whose default setting corresponds to the openright option. In that case you are probably looking for the effect of the openany option.
Your are right. I am using MastersDoctoralThesis and checked the file:
Can find:
\newcommand{\checktoopen}{% New command to move content to the next page which prints to the next odd page if twosided mode is active
\if@openright\cleardoublepage\else\clearpage\fi
\ifdef{\phantomsection}{\phantomsection}{}% The \phantomsection command is necessary for hyperref to jump to the correct page
}
what do I need to do to switch it off ? single page instead of double page with one empty page?
