[Tex/LaTex] How to float until on left (or right) page

Question

I have two sideways tables that I want on two facing pages so the reader can turn the entire book and read them both in one turn. For the moment I keep moving them around to keep them on facing pages. Is there a way I can make the first one float until it's on a left page and then place the other one right after? Or perhaps some similar way to automatically get them on the same spread?

Answer 1

Use package dpfloat (double page float)

\documentclass[twoside]{article}
\usepackage{dpfloat}
\usepackage{lipsum}

\begin{document}
\lipsum[2]

\begin{figure}[p]% will be the left-side figure
\begin{leftfullpage}
This is the left side figure
\caption{And this is the caption of the left side figure}
\end{leftfullpage}
\end{figure}
\begin{figure}[p]% will be the right-side figure
\caption{And this is the caption of the right side figure}
\begin{fullpage}
This is the right side figure
\end{fullpage}
\end{figure}

\lipsum
\end{document}
