Re: Blank pages in PDFs

I also think it is essential to include the blank pages to maintain the
integrity of the document. I agree with Doug that the page should contain
text indicating that the page was blank in the original, and perhaps left or
right if it was the left or right page. The reason this is important is
that AT varies widely in its rendering of PDFs. If there is not a
placeholder, the result could be difficult to interpret, even by an
experienced user.
