586.0. "single-sided output" by TLE::MICHAELS (Karen Michaels) Thu Jul 02 1987 11:00

Is there any way to tell document that the output for a diven file will be
single-sided?  I'd like all my page numbers on the right and change bars on the
left.  Can I change the design files to do this?  Which ones do I need to
change?

586.1I can change the design file to get this effectTLE::MICHAELSKaren MichaelsThu Jul 02 1987 11:5425
I figured out how to do this for my own doctype that I have added (which I
have layer on top of software spec).  I have added the following lines to my
design file:

%
% Always put change bars on left side
%
\setoddpagerevbaronepos{-20pt}{L}
\setevenpagerevbaronepos{-20pt}{L}

%
% Always put headers and feet on left side.
%
\def\leftheaderline{%    
  \hbox to \physicalpagewidth{\hss \headerfont \strut \rightheader}%    
}   
\def\leftfooterline{%               
  \hbox to \physicalpagewidth{\hss\footerfont\strut\rightfooter}%         
}             

Now this only works for my special doctype.  It would be nice if I could just
specify the single_sided tag for any doctype, instead of having to modify the
design file for each one that I want to use.

    The wishlist already includes a major item, which is to specify
    whether the output is to be set up for single- or double-sided
    printing on the command line, so that DESIGN files can do the
    appropriate thing based on how the output is to be copied or used.
