How fancy is your printer and what sort of print run do you do? Why not print 
your letter text single-sided and do a bulk run before or after to print your 
legal text on the back? The way you describe it, the legal text sounds as if it 
does not vary.

Subject: Yet another pagination issue


The ongoing saga of my FOP-driven letter engine continues. Now, management has 
requested that I create letters that are comprised of 2 pages. The letter text 
on the first page, and state-specific legal text on the back.

First, I want to specifically say "this text can only go on even pages" and 
"that text can only go on odd pages". If the letter text goes over one page, I 
want the text to roll onto a third page and leave the state specific text only 
on page 2. Secondly, my engine right now appends multiple FO documents together 
to create one bulk PDF. I'm assuming I will be using the 
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="alternating"> tag to control what goes on 
even and odd pages, given the first issue, will the solution be friendly to 
this? Finally, it's all good and well if it's able to be done using XSL:FO...I 
obviously am searching for a solution that FOP 0.20.5 supports. Any ideas?
