Modifying FM's default R/L master pages

[Gay Alson]

Hello, Framers,
FrameMaker imposes Right/Left master pages that can’t be deleted, although they can be modified—or so I thought.
In one template, I changed the orientation of the default R/L master pages from Portrait to Landscape. However, after PDFing a book consisting of several chapters, some using the modified Right/Left and others using the default (portrait) Right/Left master pages, the result is all Portrait pages.
To me this indicates that the PDFing procedure applied the same master pages to all pages. Is there a way around this?
(Previously I used custom Landscape Right and Left pages but that caused other problems, which I hoped to avoid by just using default R & L master pages that had been modified. )
Any wisdom will be greatly appreciated.
TIA,
~~Gay
