could be added below the Part title and the following page be kept blank. I don't know what is better stylistically, nor how to achieve either in LaTeX.<br>
<br>
It would be better on usenet:comp.text.tex or texhax, since it isn't OS X specific.<br>
<br>
That said, some hooks:<br>
<br>
the blank page after a part is introduced by \afterpartskip, which is initially defined as:<br>
<br>
{\vfil\newpage}<br>
<br>
so you could hook into it by redefining it as (if you want stuff on the new page):<br>
<br>
\renewcommand{afterpartskip}{\vfil\newpage\myafterpartmacrohere}<br>
<br>
then define \myafterpartmacrohere to do whatever you want.<br>
<br>
Adjust as necessary.<br>
