Yes, we use them to make things easier when there are changes
to the manuals. We also start numbering over again on the
first page of each chapter. (That is, 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, new chapter:
2-1, 2-2, 2-3...)
This way, if there is a change to chapter 1 that affects the
number of pages in that chapter, chapter 2 does not also need to
be reprinted. So, we actually DO save paper (sort of).
But no, we don't actually put anything on the blank pages
except the normal headers and footers. No "This page intentionally
left blank" or anything like that.
