Document with the problem/bug.

I developed a document-template for A4-documents. They will be printed as a book on duplex print.

There is a main-text-columne on the inner side of the page and with 1 cm distance a columne of 4,5 cm on the outer side of the page - for pictures and additional text.

Problem: In the template of the grafics and the Frames I activated the option "mirror on even pages" - but sometimes the frames or grafics jump on the wrong side of the page. They should be always on the inner side, but aome of them jump on the outer side.

Perhaps this is ab bug, isn't it?

In the attached document you can see the bug on the picture with the bycicle-gear on page 4. The same thing concerns sometimes frames with text inside.

kind regards, PS
