Thanks for your help. Your solution works but I need more "fine
tuning" on
this background.
You can also place backgrounds only on left/right pages.
If you want the background on chapter pages etc. it makes sense
to integrate the background in a slightly different way but more
details about the layout needed for this to find the best solution.
So, I'll explain in more details the structure of my layout.
The idea is that the pages are presented side-by-side. Visually we
have 4 columns.
- The last one (right, on the right page) is the main text.
- The third column (left, on the right page) is used for the figures
(images,
graphs, diagrams, etc.)
- The second column (right, on the left page) is used to discuss some
points of the main text. Like advanced stuff, debate, historical
notes, etc)
- The first one (left, on the left page) have some light gray
background
and is an area for FAQ about the topic.
The title of each double page is on the right page, aligned with the
left column of the right page.
The second column (right, on the left page) may have a title defining
the topic of this column.
Is the content for each topic short enough for one double page or
is it possible the content on a left page requires more space and
continues on the next left page?
With the layout described above it also possible to write
a environment where the content is saved and macros/buffer and
placed at the end of the environment, this has the advantage
to know how much space is needed and you're not forced to write
the input in the order they are output on the page.
