How to force the PDF to have a multiple-of-4 number of pages

[mhd]

To be printed, PDF documents must have a number of pages divisible by four.
So far, I get the right number by tweaking manually vertical spaces, or by adding an empty topic in the toc where I want an "extra" blank page. And when the content changes (impacting length of topics), I have to re-adjust everything...

But maybe someone knows how to proceed more automatically and professionally?

Hi all,

I am also finding that without manual tweaks, I end up with an odd number of pages.

Does anyone have any advice on this?

Thank you very much in advance.

Any solution for this. This is very normal, actually standard for printed manuals done professionally.
So how do we add a back page, and a number of blank pages before that so that the PDF will have multiple-of-4 pages?

Just got this response from MadCap:

The Flare application cannot natively add pages to conform to the divisible-by-4 rule in a way to automatically generate the correct blank pages per document.

And a feature request has been made #82738.

I have to say that I'm surprised this is not part of this product, - for making documentation
