Hi I want to create badges for an event. 

I'm currently making an automated document where 4 badges are on one page like so:

A B 

C D 

 

To make it possible for the print shop to print them recto verso i should have a page after that with 

B A 

D C 

 

How can i automate this as well?

If the info on both sides is customized and unique, then ... you cannot automate it. You will have to intervene manually. If the info on the back is the same generic info, then you have an easier time of it.

 

It would take a lot of work, but if you were had Linked/Threaded textframes, you could place a textfile into two documents. The Linked /Threaded textframes on the second side would essentially be linking right to left, whereas the Linked Threaded textframes on the front would be linked from Left to Right. Add in paragraph styles with Keep Options that told it when to break to the next frame, and that could go well. But if you have customized graphics, especially on both sides, well, things get a bit more manual at that point.
