select new page after

found this, your going to have to work with these a bit.
 
If what you want is a new "front" page to begin after each group, then format your Group Footer section to 'Print at Bottom of Page'.

Then, also for the Group Footer, enter a formula for 'New Page Before':

not (onlastrecord)
and
next({Table.GroupField}) <> {Table.GroupField}
and
remainder(pagenumber,2) <> 0

That should start new groups only on odd numbered pages.

An alternative that may oir may not work better is in Section Expert go to format GH1 and place   Not onfirstrecord   in the New Page After formula field but leave the box unchecked.This will make it go to a next page before it starts a new Group Header except for page 1.

Then in Group Footer 1 Section Expert in the formula field for New Page After place   pageNumber Mod2=1  and again do not check the box.This should make it create a new page after each group footer if that footer falls on an odd numbered page.If you reset the page numbers after each group it is always going to considered page 1 regardless if it is the front or back of your paper so do not reset page numbers.
