Duplex normal

Hi Michael,

In DRV file, I wrote this:
// Duplex supported
Duplex normal
Attribute cupsBackSide ""  Rotated
Attribute cupsFlipDuplex "" True

If I compile it with ppdc in OSX 10.5 (CUPSDDK 1.2.3), I got this in PPD
*cupsBackSide: "Rotated"
*cupsFlipDuplex: True

If I compile it with ppdc on OSX 10.8 (OS provides), I got this in PPD
*cupsBackSide: "Normal"
*cupsBackSide: "Rotated"
*cupsFlipDuplex: True

The extra line "*cupsBackSide: Normal" leads to a bug in auto duplex printing, only short edge binding.

Michael, what do you suggest? Should I use the old ppdc instead of the new version ppdc on OSX 10.8?

Thanks
Keene
