Mike,

in http://www.princexml.com/forum/topic/1734/open-pdf-as-continuous-facing you explained:
»In PDF-1.4 there are "TwoColumnLeft" and "TwoColumnRight" values for the /PageLayout key, and in PDF-1.5 they added aliases for these "TwoPageLeft" and "TwoPageRight" that otherwise behave identically.«

Are you sure, that TwoPageLeft/Right are aliases? In Acrobat there is a »continuous double page« mode (which I think is the TwoColumn mode) and a »single double page mode« (which I think is the TwoPage mode).

I tried

@prince-pdf {
    prince-pdf-page-layout: two-column-right;
}

and it works great. But the PDFs open in »continuous double page« mode. I'd like them to open in »single double page« mode. How can I achieve this? Respectively: Please integrate this feature into Prince.

Thanks
Tobias

You are right, it looks like I misinterpreted this back in 2011, or I was using PDF viewer with different behaviour then. We will investigate this for the next release of Prince, thanks for letting us know.

Thanks for your answer. The two page modes will fit nicely into the existing code:

@prince-pdf {
    prince-pdf-page-layout: two-column-left;
    prince-pdf-page-layout: two-column-right;
    prince-pdf-page-layout: two-page-left;
    prince-pdf-page-layout: two-page-right;
}

I'm looking forward to find them in the next release ...

Tobias

Prince 10 rev 3 is now available, and includes these two new values.

Mike, you’re the best! Thanks!

Tobias
