Cheers Eric,

I think I'll leave the Config-file, as so many territories use the same
files on our servers.

Matt,

Page 2 needs to be on the back of page 1, right?  And there is an easier
way to set duplex in PostScript.

First - modify your POSTSCRI.STR file (the PostScript config-file) to
include the following:
%%BeginDefaults
<< /Duplex false >> setpagedevice
%%EndDefaults

You want to place these lines before this line in the file:
% Note: The lines beginning '%PROLOG1' and '%PROLOG2' are required.

Remember, this is modifying the file that all PostScript files will use;
therefore, all will default to Simplex.

Next - use the following code:
IF #page-count < 3
   print-direct printer=ps '<< /Duplex true >> setpagedevice'
END-IF

This way, page 1 is on the front and page 2 is on the back of page 1 and
pages 3 and following are defaulted to simplex.

If you don't want to modify your POSTSCRI.STR file, you only need to use
the setpagedevice command twice - once to set duplex, once to set
simplex.

Hope that helps,
~Eric

Just to check, will the following be able to complete the following
situation:

1st Piece of Paper Duplex
2nd Piece Simplex
3rd piece simplex....etc...

I am going to be compiling the code by the end of the day hopefully, and
wonder whether this is okay.

IF #page-count = 1
    USE-PRINTER-TYPE postscript
    PRINT-DIRECT printer=ps 'statusdict begin'
    PRINT-DIRECT printer=ps 'true setduplexmode'
    PRINT-DIRECT printer=ps 'end'
ELSE
    USE-PRINTER-TYPE postscript
    PRINT-DIRECT printer=ps 'statusdict begin'
    PRINT-DIRECT printer=ps 'false setduplexmode'
    PRINT-DIRECT printer=ps 'end'
END-IF

Matthew Olliver

Here is the sample SQR code for PostScript:
...
begin-program
  do main
end-program
!
begin-procedure main
use-printer-type postscript
print-direct printer=ps 'statusdict begin'
print-direct printer=ps 'true setduplexmode'
print-direct printer=ps 'end'
...
end-procedure
...
Here is the sample SQR code for HPLaserJet:
...
begin-program
      use-printer-type hplaserjet
      encode '<27>&l1S' into $duplex
      print-direct $duplex
      do main
      ...       
end-program
...

I have a document which needs altering; it currently prints simplex with
one invoice on each page. Our customer now requires it to have the terms
and conditions on the back of every page.=20=20

What is the quickest and easiest way to do this?=20=20 Is it esc
codes?=20 Or=20 Is it easier to do something each time NEW-PAGE is
called.
