Just to amplify a bit on Richard's answer, the "Next Available"
pagination option (and the "Read From File" option, too) can
only be set from the book window. If you access the
pagination properties from an individual file's window, all
you'll see are "Right" and "Left" since the other options
only have meaning in the context of a book.

Also note that you can set the pagination properties for
multiple files simultaneously by highlighting a group of files
in the book window, then right-clicking on the selection
and choosing Pagination from the pop-up menu.

Assuming that pagination is double-sided, check the 1st Page Side
setting of the file _after_ each one to which a blank page is added. If
the first file ends on a right page, and the next file is set to start
on a right page, FM has to add a left page to the first file. Set the
next file to start on the next available page instead.

HTH!
Richard
