I'm using Adobe Acrobat X Pro on Windows 8 OS. I frequently scan to PDF on a network printer over which I cannot control the print settings. When I print 2-sided, there will often be blank pages (where there is no text on the second side). I've tried to use the Preflight tool to remove empty pages. The 'fixup' rule will work to remove empty pages, but I have to first go into View/Show-Hide/Navigation Panes/Content then scroll down the pages to find the blanks. Then expand and right-click the XObject and delete it. Only then I can go to the Preflight tool, select the 'remove empty pages' fixup. It asks to resave the file then proceeds with the fix and removes the blank pages. If I don't remove the XObject, the 'remove empty pages' tool' will resave an identical file and not remove the blank pages.
You'd think there would be a better way ????
