Final draft 8 print character sides greyed out

#FINAL DRAFT 8 PRINT CHARACTER SIDES GREYED OUT HOW TO#

I had to do a lot of things by hand with this book that I would have preferred to have done using the MSW system, but due to lack of familiarity with its intricacies had no option. Very complex! Now that I am aware of this, it will be extremely helpful going forward. I guess, as Andrew mentions here, 'When section breaks are marked as deleted, they might not appear in some views but they are still in the document.' This was really something new for me. I removed those section breaks, and now everything is perfect.

As per Charles' recommendation I went into Draft view, and there I found section breaks which were not showing up in Print view even when I selected the option to have all hidden symbols show.

I need to get rid of these two blank pages described above before sending to the printer, and I've spent hours trying to figure out what is going on with them, why they are there, and how to get rid of them. But having removed the odd-page section break, I do not understand why there is a blank page here when I print to PDF. So I removed the odd-page section break, and now it is printing only one blank page. But when I printed to pdf, there was not one but three blank pages in that location. In my MSW file it looked perfect- one blank page, followed by the preface starting on an odd page.

To that end I had placed an odd-page section break. A blank page is there, in the absence of any page break, section break, etc.ДЈ) I actually want a blank page at the end of the TOC so that the preface will begin on an odd page. I don't know whether that may be related with it?Дў) The same is occurring before the TOC. The only mark I see is a greyed out paragraph symbol at the top left corner of the publishers page. There is no page break, no section break, nothing. When I click to show the paragraph marks and other special symbols, I do not see anything there that would cause a blank page to appear here. There is no such blank page in the MSW file. There are two places where it is happening:ДЎ) After the title page and before the publishers page, a blank page is getting generated when I print to pdf. Now though I have the book all set to go to press, and again I find that there are some blank pages when I print to the pdf. Thanks! At that time I got it worked out, don't recall any more exactly what I did.
