Question Preps 5 $side question

Currently we have the normal $side tags on our forms so it comes out either A, B, C, or D.

I was asked if it was possible to have it come out different like so... Web1 Top, Web1 Bottom, Web2 Top, Web2 Bottom.


Is that possible with a different variable then $side?

Thanks for any help!

I have just created text tags for each side:

Web 1 Outside
Web 1 Inside

Web 2 Outside
Web 2 Inside

and so on

You just put them in manually and turn off the mirror function.

Default Preps 5 $side question

What I use is the code:
side$side

And that gives me the signature and the side on my plates. It will display like this "signature1 sideA".

I believe this is what you are looking for.

Wouldn't this work? We use WEB:$Web $[SN]

This shows up as 1 Front, 1 Back, 2 Front, 2 Back, etc.
