Hi all,

The issue with this document is that the number and positioning of staves within pages one and two (excluding Title page) are not the same, despite the page margin and distancing within the margins under Document Setup being set to the same settings for both left and right pages, as shown in the images I have uploaded.

Can anyone tell me where I'm going wrong here?

Tick the box After 1st page. Does that make a difference?

And after you did it did you reset space above, reset space below and then optimize? (In that exact order)

I'd also check the settings in Page Setup. Sometimes, for no reason I can determine, these can be less than optimal.
