It doesn't help much, but it appears only on pages with a submodel used twice
(x2). Perhaps it would help to see the mpd source file?

Right click on the model in the step where you want to reduce scale, choose
"Change scale" and choose your scale. LPub then ask if you want it to affect
this step only - choose yes. If you want the scale change to affect all
following steps, edit the source and remove "local" in !LPUB ASSEM MODEL_SCALE
statement inside the step (there may be simpler solution for that...)

First you need to append a back cover page (go to last page, then edit / append
page). For some reason this command may not work the first time... Go to this
inserted page and edit / add bill of materials.
There may be only one bom page, so you'll need to reduce drasticaly scale in
configuration / bom setup
