The easiest way is to create two padstacks. The top one is created
normally. The one for the bottom is created as blind/buried. The top and
bottom padstacks can then be placed at the same x,y coordinate and there
shouldn't be any issues. This keeps the pin numbers right reading but
you may want to place pin number text that is mirrored to the back row
of pins.
You may also want to offset the location for the pin number so it is
easier to read the pin numbers since they won't be on top of each other.

I need to create an edge connector, therefore I need surface pads on
both
sides of the board.  What is the best way to do this?

Thanks
