I'm finally getting back to actually using Prince again after just watching development for a long time.

I need to keep the reference attached to the text for these small portions. These are flash cards used to help people memorize 25 scriptures needed to earn a Bible.

How do I print a page number in the bleed area to tell printer which pages go together for front and back?

We mimic the slugs from page layout programs by putting a negative bottom margin on @bottom-center (along with vertical-align: bottom)

@bottom-center {
vertical-align: bottom;
margin-bottom: -40pt;
}

This will require some futzing with prince-trim, prince-bleed, and the margin-bottom value to get the result you want.

Thanks Dauwhe,

I used margin-bottom: -50pt; and it worked perfectly.
