Attached is a simple file that demonstrates this. As is, it does not
leave a blank page. But if you remove the num:nil option from the second
line of this file, you do get a blank page.
You (probably) need koma-article class for this. (I didn't install
anything. It just worked for me.) You don't need the images.
