French term or phrase: 2-couleur RºVº
What does " 2-couleur RºVº " mean in English?

It was written on a French document which was talking about printing a logo on a product.

Thank you.

English translation:2-colour recto/verso
Explanation:
In this context I would say that R V stands for recto and verso, meaning the front and back/both sides of the sheet of paper. We use the same terms in English.

You say it's on a product but even if it is, say, on a bottle it would still mean front and back.
