<h3>Facing floats on 2-page spread</h3>
<p>If a pair of floats are to be forced to form a 2-page spread (in a
book, or whatever), the first must lie on the left side of the spread,
on an even-numbered page.  The <i>dpfloat</i> package provides for
this: the construction to use is:
<blockquote>
<pre>
\begin{figure}[p]
  \begin{leftfullpage}
    &lt;left side figure&gt;
  \end{leftfullpage}
\end{figure}
\begin{figure}[p]
  \begin{fullpage}
    &lt;right side figure&gt;
  \end{fullpage}
\end{figure}
</pre>
</blockquote>
The construction has no effect unless the standard class option
<code>twoside</code> is in effect.
<p>Full documentation of the package (such as it is) is to be found in
<i>README.dpfloat</i>
