Dear Eckhard,

You meant to say warp, not weft, didn't you?

I prefer to have designs for double-faced weaving (letters or anything 
else) in a grid format with dark and light rectangles, so I can easily see 
what the design looks like. Then it is just a matter of writing F, B, 
repeat up the rows on the graph as a reminder (2 turns for each rectangle, 
with the F or B indicating the turning direction of the background pack and 
the design pack always turning the opposite way).

Are you using a one-pack method for weaving double-faced designs?  If that 
is so, then I can see that it would be useful to show the turning direction 
for each tablet.
