Probably this is a very trivial problem, but I couldn't solve it...
I have a LaTeX file of the following format:
\documentstyle[titlepage,fullpage,twoside]{article}
\begin{document}
\title{{\Huge TITLE}}
\author{Tuna Ertemalp}
\date{\today}
\maketitle
\cleardoublepage
\begin{center}
{\huge CONTENTS} \\
\end{center}
blah blah
\cleardoublepage
blah blah
\cleardoublepage
blah blah
\end{document}
Since I'm one of the lucky people with access to a printer with
two-sided printing capability, I want to have the output to have the
title page, an empty page (both without page numbers), and then the
rest of the pages numbered 1...n. If I don't have that blank page, the
title page and page 1 appear on two sides of the same page; hardly
what I want.
The funny thing is: I have two such files. They are equal except
the text they have instead of "blah blah". Just to confuse me, one of
them prints just the way I want, and the other not... I think this is
a problem with either dvi2ps or printer itself. I don't think LaTeX is
not deterministic. :-)
What am I to do?
Have fun
