Provide a version for duplex print

Asked by Fred Seidemann on 2010-01-10

Hello everybody,

are there any plans on providing a version for printing this document in duplex mode actually? Since this would reduce the number of needed printing paper dramatically ("save the virgin forrest" ;-) ) I would suggest to implement this feature.

As you use Latex it is very easy to implement, you just need these two commands at \documentclass:

\documentclass[twoside,openright]{...doc-class...}

twoside: enables duplex printing
openright: forces new chaptes to start on a right-hand page (which is a standard for large documents like books etc.)

How do you think about this?

Best regards

Oh hi,

Yep we sure can include that. I'll get the LaTeX guys onto it right away! :)

Thanks so much for your feedback.

Great idea. We'll remember to do a version like this when we get around to releasing.

Can you help with this problem?
