I would not expect a simple page sequence to necessarily have an even or odd number of pages in general. But if the document is specified to be two-sided (which, BTW, I did not realize was _possible_ with a simple-page-sequence), I would expect it to have an even number of pages. If I start printing on a recto page, the last page of the document must be a verso -- unless you can produce a printer that prints on a Mobius strip :-). Mind you, it's perfectly reasonable for that last page to be blank, and it's less clear what the behavior of an electronic version of that document should be. But I actually prefer having that blank last page there, as my photocopiers then behave correctly when reproducing it. DSSSList info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/dsssl/dssslist
