How to have some records print 3 forms and other records in the same batch print 4 forms?

I have an application that has been printing 3 forms for each
selected record. At least thats what it looks like for all practical
purposes. The form is actually 198 (66x3) lines and has been working
perfectly. This form prints the first two forms on white paper and
the third page on colored paper from another paper tray. Now however
the requirements have changed and SOME records will need to print an
additional form. I know I could extend the form to 264 lines using
dummy fields, and blank them if the extra form is not needed but the
form, as it now stands, has remove blank lines set to N. Blank lines
are set to N because alignment on the other pages is critical and
they already have fields that are blank at various times.
I need an old trick for this since we're talking filePro 4.8 and SCO
Unix. It's my understanding that the form command doesn't work in
output processing but I'm sure someone else has some sort of
workaround for this problem. Thanks
