Allow for AFPDS Report duplex printing by changing the spooled file attributes (CHGSPLFA)

Please, allow for AFPDS reports to be changed from simplex to duplex by changing the "DUPLEX" parmater in the CHGSPLFA command.
Actually this is allowed only for SCS reports...

    IBM does not intend to provide a solution to this Idea at this time, so it is being closed. AFPDS files imbed media controls, such as DUPLEX, into the spool file on creation. This differs from SCS files that will reference the spool file attributes for media controls when printing.
