I set the book topics in my .fltoc file to use the "First Right" page within the SubtitleSingleLang.flpgl page layout file. The book topics are each set to start a new chapter (break=chapter). However, when I build the PDF output, the book topics start on the next available page, so that some start on left and others start on right.
What am I missing?

Re: First Right page type not honored
Is "Auto-end on left page" enabled for each item that comes before an item you want to start on the First Right page? That will inject a blank page as needed if the previous section ends on a right page. I don't think the section can start on a right page if the previous section doesn't end on a left page.

Re: First Right page type not honored
Thanks, whunter.
By the way I'm using Flare 10 on Windows 7. The current advice seems to be to use the target to inject blank pages instead of enabling the "Auto-end on left page" option for the TOC entry that is initiating a page layout. But for some reason, the TOC entry properties seem to default to enabling that option, no matter how often I change it to "(default)." Anyway I think I got it working. Here is the .fltoc that works to honor the First Right page type.

Re: First Right page type not honored
The way described by whunter works well. I had same problem as you. It is true that you just set up page type: right and enable auto-end on "left" page. BUT it is important to define empty page in page layout. After that it really makes blank left pages.
