Sequential page numbers on alternate pages

Hello,

I have been asked to help out on a funny problem. A client is looking 
for a better way to publish bilingual files in which the source 
language is on the left pages and the target language is on the 
right. Page numbers are only on the left pages, but the sequence 
ignores the right pages. The left pages are 1, 2, 3, etc., and the 
right pages aren't counted. The original files are in QuarkXpress, 
and the page numbers are added by hand. I can do with this with XML 
and XSL-FO (and even that isn't 100% automated), but that isn't 
always an easy sell. FrameMaker would be an easier sell, if there 
were a way to pull this off.

Thanks,
Kevin
