I have WfW with an HP Laserjet III. I would like to make two-sided copies, but can't do it directly because I don't have the duplex Laser. What I could do would be to print only odd-numberd pages, then re-load the paper turned over and then print the even pages. Is there any way to tell WfW to print even or odd pages only? It is possible to do this in Ventura, but it doesn't seem possible in WfW. Thanks, Tom

Then cut the next page and paste to a file called "rightdoc". Have the macro repeat this process until EOF. Then, you need only print the two documents and delete them (so they're free for the next time you run the macro) I know it's a pain in the ass, but if there's no other way, it just might be helpful for small documents (depending on your PC speed) Later, _ __ ]_) . ] briang%deadzone@Princeton.EDU <\___...____ ]_) ]~ ] C\ ]\) ]__].
