atw: Re: Pagination query

Hi Brian -- there is another way to do it, but it's tricky and you and the
eventual maintainers need some expertise with fields. You judge whether it's
worth it, and whether it will be maintained adequately.

Include a conditional field, where the condition is whether the page number
is even or odd, and the two outcomes are a page break (if we're on an odd
page) and null (if we're on an even one). The page break may at your whim be
followed by the usual "This page is intentionally blank, except for this
remark and the headers and footers". To determine whether the page number is
even or odd, use the INT function (integer part of). So you will end up with
something that looks a bit like this

{IF {=INT({ page }/2)*2} = {page} "page break goes here" "" }

The braces aren't real braces, but fields; what you get when you use
CTRL/F9.

Good luck.
