     Yes, all documents **must** end with a paragraph mark. Writer 
documents are written using XML. The "markers" used to format the text 
are used in pairs. If there is a beginning of a paragraph, there must be 
an ending of it. The paragraph markers only visually show you where the 
paragraphs begin and end.
     I just created a master document from 4 chapters that I have. 
(Total pages: 212) In the master document, nothing is below the end of a 
given chapter; the next chapter begins with on a new page. And if the 
subdocument ended as an odd page in the master document, a blank page 
was added so that the new chapter begins as an odd page.
     How did you create the master document? If we had your steps, 
someone might be able to discover what has to be done differently.
