This double-page float package, dpfloat.sty, allows you to specify +that a float must appear on an even page, and thereby allows you to format a +double-page figure. + + ------------------------------------------------------------------------ + +You format a double-page figure by formatting two consecutive, full-page +figures, specifying that the first must appear on a left page.
