Text on odd, figures on even

Post by bethan »

I need a whizz to help me please..

I'm trying to construct a document with text lying only on odd pages and figures lying only on even pages.

I have thought about inserting blank floats but my document (thesis) is pretty big so it would take an age and also mean a lot of work if I have to go back and edit the contents later.

Just to be extra-picky, I would also like the text pages to be numbered in sequence and to have figure pages numbered (when there is a figure there) with the same number as the page they face but accompanied by an 'f'. So page 20f lies opposite page 20, for example.

If anyone has any ideas about just doing the first bit I'd be grateful though, thanks!

You can take a look at the epslatex document. In Section 26 (Figures on Even or Odd Pages, p. 97ff) it introduces a method to get the desired result. The semioneside package may offers an alternative solution.
