Hi,

Yes it is possible to do. There are several ways of accomplishing this. You can also use Force Front with a condition on it.

Please refer to the PlanetPress Talk Reference guide and the PlanetPress User guide for more.

Code:
&FirstSide (system variable)
Read-only variable that returns True when a page is printing on the first side of a page in duplex mode
(double-sided printing). In simplex mode (single-sided) &firstside always returns True.
This variable is based on PostScript

Hi Cosimo, what I need is, in a phone call detail, separate phone lines from each other (not to print in the second side of the page a new line). How do I use the read-only system variable &FirstSide?.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

There are different methods. I would suggest opening a support call "Report an Issue" and someone will assist you.

Thanks
Cosimo

Thanks Cosimo. I'll try to work it out and if I can't, I'll open an issue.

Thanks
