Need info on Duplex Printing multiple pages in LiveCycle

My company has several forms on our intranet for intake purposes but staff persons complained about having to open different ones. So they asked me to take all the forms they use and make it into a 1 form document package. So basically I just created a new form and copy and pasted the layouts and the entire thing is 14 pages. Unfortunately there were forms that were either 1, 2, 4 pages. I thought by organizing them in a way it would print out find on our copiers since they support duplex printing but of course the whole thing became discombobulated. Is there a way by scripting code to tell the form which pages to print duplex and which ones to keep simplex? I looked in the form properties and there's no feature to allow that.
 
Thank you.

Hi,

IMHO combining forms is not a reliable process, using a PDF portfolio should be more efficient.

I've done that in the past but there are fields in our intake package like patient's name, patient id#, screening date, that's replicated to the other forms to save time on typing without having to repeat the information and unfortunately in the past portfolio didn't support global data field transfer to each form. I'm using Acrobat X Pro.
