Two logical pages on one physical page may be accomplished with the

XLI by following the procedure below:

1) Set the margins for the size of the first logical page.
2) Print the text for the first page. DO NOT EXCEED the

margins or physical size of the paper.

3) Set the margins for the second logical page.
4) Absolute text placement to the print position of the first

character of the second two-up page.

5) Print the text for the second page.
6) Form Feed to the next physical page or side.

NOTE: The margin settings for a second page in XTRAEDIT are not

supported and have no effect.

To test the procedure, enter the following source code.
