I've written my family tree in Open office. Some pages are title pages; centered text, single column. Some pages are family data pages; two column text. I have come across some strange behavior in OO, that I can't seem to get rid of. If I add a page and copy and paste data from another page, sometimes it adds an extra blank page. If I get rid of that page the new page with the pasted data becomes part of the previous existing page. A double ctrl-enter then adds a blank page and puts the new data on it's own page. If I then hit the delete once, then it appears to be fixed. But it's not really. If I save and close, the blank page comes back. Anyone else have issues like this with OO. I know this is probably something to post in a bug report. Also, any one but more than one textbox on a page? I'd like to have two textboxes on the data pages; one with two columns and one with one column.

Just a guess but it sounds like you are describing the behavior of a document that has even-odd page formatting. Also check to see if perhaps section breaks are being inserted instead of page breaks.

Also note that all objects may have page-break before and page-break after settings on them. The combination of two of those would generate an empty page.
