Is there a way to set your foldout to publish duplex.

In Styler, Select a context for foldout

Then select Insert-> Condition-> Condition type=If; Condition is true if=All tests are true -> New Attribute Test-> Test of Current element=foldout; Attribute name=outputclass; Attribute value: Comparison=duplex-> OK-> OK


Make sure the condition is selected and select Breaks-> Start new=odd page; Page set Name=Foldout Page set

Since this is a new condition, it does not have gentext after that forces new page

Copy and paste condition to each context needing same code.


To get foldout 1 to print on the back of foldout 2, you need to set the outputclass attribute on the foldout element that contains foldout 4 to duplex.


In the style sheet. Locate and expand the foldout element. Expand the "foldout everywhere else" context and then highlight the "IF attribute "outputclass" = "duplex"" condition. Select the Breaks category and then set "Start new" to "Page" and confirm that Page set Name is set to "Foldout Page Set".


Now when you compose, you should see foldout 2's title and image on the back of foldout 1's page.
