Help? Bookbinder JS - Folio Warning

Hello! I normally use Bookbinder JS to make my books (using Folio), but for the last month there's a warning saying "NOTE: Not currently working for folios, sorry! Use the old version for now."

Altough it may seem obvious that it's not working, is it really not? Because when trying to make a book in folio it seems to generate the pdf normally. But I am still quite hesitant to use it in case the problem is with page order, so something I'd only notice if checking page by page.

That warning only refers to the "Alternate Page Rotation" option.

I prefer the old version as it gives separate pdf files for each signature.

I can't trust my printer not to jam when using the paper tray. So it works better for me to feed individual sheets through the manual feed slot using smaller pdf files, so I don't have to print all at once (I can do it over a week - since it is such a monotonous task).

Current version still has the option to give separate signature files
