Hello, We do not have such an option for FusionPro. However, We were able to do it in PostScript output using PostScript setpagedevice commands. Depending on your press, this may or may not work but it is, indeed, standard PostScript.
Here's how this works. First, create 2 text files and name them something like "simplex.txt" and "duplex.txt". The name isn't important - just so you know which is for the Simplex command and which is for Duplex. Now in the "simplex.txt" file, place the following exact text in there: <</Duplex false>> setpagedevice % Letter <</PageSize [612 792] /MediaWeight 75 /MediaColor (white) /MediaType (plain) >> setpagedevice In "duplex.txt", put this in there: <</Duplex true>> setpagedevice % Letter <</PageSize [612 792] /MediaWeight 75 /MediaColor (white) /MediaType (plain) >> setpagedevice Now the next step is to go to your template. Go to FusionPro->Compose and select PostScript as your output type. Click "Save" and then close the composition dialogue. Save your template. The next step is to go to FusionPro->Advanced->Page Media. This dialogue lets you associate those text files you created to where the simplex and duplexing are to occur. So for page 1, set if you want simplex or duplex by browsing for the appropriate text file for the "Insert command file at beginning of location" box. Then go to the page that will switch to the other method and select the appropriate text file for the "...beginning of location" box. Compose a couple records of your job to PostScript and submit to print and see what happens. Also, I'd recommend checking with your press operator or someone else at your company to see if they are familiar with the PostScript "setpagedevice" commands as you may need to tweak the PostScript I gave you above (for example, if you are using a sheet size other than letter which is 612pt X 792pt). Good luck ! -Alex -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2008 10:21 AM To: FusionPro Users Forum Subject: [fusionpro] RE: Print options when composing to a printer > Thanks Alex, Yes I have used that function.

It doesn't seem to be there. Hello Steve, did you try FusionPro Imposer, you can setup your document page size, Press sheet size, and simplex/duplex, and your Nup and so on... before you compose your job. This will create a FPI file that you will import at composing stage on the Imposition Tab in your composition settings. Hope this is what you were looking for.
