May one begin with a blank page?
Hello! I have notated a three-page song, voice and piano. Its refrain occupies the whole of the last page. It will print out on two sheets of paper. Those offer four sides for printing. It will help the pianist if the first side could be blank, or just a title. That way, the refrain will be on the l...

I believe I spoke too soon when I discounted the advice you kindly gave me. I find similar instruction at the top of the manual page called Page Layout, and am giving it a careful reading and trial.
