Re: facing pages in PDF browsers

Reinhard,

Finally getting back to your proposed texinfo.tex change.

    this change some browsers display two pages by default though they
    didn't in the past, 

I rather suspect people will be very unhappy about that.  I know I would
be, if my PDF reader happened to care about it.

    the patch below might be better.  

Unfortunately, making the change in \HEADINGSdouble wouldn't help much
in this regard, since @setchapternewpage odd is set in most manuals.
    
    The basic idea is that /TwoPageRight is *only* needed if page
    numbers appear at different positions on odd and even pages.

Granted that viewing
  [1][2]
  [3][4]
is bad ... is it possible to make the default for Adobe also be one-page
mode?  That is, if a user says "view in two page mode", then we want
the /PageLayout/TwoPageRight so they get the right thing.  But if they
don't say that, then we want one page mode to be the default (as it
always has been, I gather, from your description).

Thanks,
k
