superfluous second page #15

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
The last two lines of Brian's sample poster read:

\end{poster}%
\end{document}

If the % symbol is removed, then a superfluous, empty second page will be 
generated in the output .pdf file. This was confirmed both with Brian's 
original .tex file as well as a user-created .tex file. I would consider this 
bug a bit treacherous, because people may think that they can safely remove the 
comment symbol whereas it is in fact necessary.

Note that the empty second page will not be generated if an empty line is 
inserted between the two commands, i.e.:

\end{poster}

\end{document}

will generate only one page, as it should.

I'm using Texlive under Ubuntu 10.10 Maverick, but a friend of mine experienced 
the same issue under Mac OSX.

Thank you for the bug-report. I fixed this in the template, by adding a \par at 
the end of the environment. Now there is no empty page regardless of comments 
or empty lines.
