[css3-page] LCWD issue 25 -- [25] Section 3.6

Ernest,

It seems to me that using Media Queries [1] provides the best way to set one
set of rules for duplex printer and another for simplex devices.  As you
say, I think it is outside the scope of this doc.

Your issue, shown below, has been assigned the number 25.

A further response will be forthcoming. Please address any replys to
