309.0. "Double-sided printing, please" by GOTA1::PER (Per Nisslert, SWAS Gothenburg, Sweden) Mon Apr 27 1987 07:03

    Hello,
    How about an option to separate odd and even-numbered pages into
    two separate files? This gives the possibility of double-sided printing
    on an ordinary LN03. I have played around with DSR output in this
    way and have been amazed how much easier to read (and handle!) a
    double-sided document is.

309.1Here, here!JAWS::STRYKERStew StrykerMon Apr 27 1987 13:121
    I'll second that suggestion.
309.2suggestion noted -- and thanksVAXUUM::DEVRIESThose are features, not bugsMon Apr 27 1987 14:4912
    Provisions for duplex (two-sided) printing are high on our wishlist
    for the next version.  It gets really complicated (what doesn't?),
    because in the near future there will be *real* duplex printers
    available to the masses, and the techniques for "manual" duplex
    may not be the same as those for "automatic" duplex.
    
    In any case, we have had some preliminary discussions on the subject,
    and once V1.0 is out the door, we'll look at this much more closely.
    
    Thanks for your votes.

309.3at the least ...ATLAST::BOUKNIGHTEverything has an outlineMon Apr 27 1987 21:563
    The minimum requirement would be top at least put in the extra "blank"
    pages at the end of chapters that don't end on an even page.

309.4Second the previous motion!BUNSUP::LITTLETodd Little NJCD SWS 323-4475Tue May 05 1987 18:575
Yes, please consider the "extra" blank pages ability for V1.0.  I cannot
get our secretaries to consistantly make two sided copies because of
the confusion due to the missing verso pages.
