Further to Rainer's response, I note that width/height and modes seem to
auto-adjust. If the mode is landscape, the document size adjusts to make the
width larger than the height. Personally, this strikes me as odd. I'd expect the
document size to stay the same irrespective of the mode.

I note a different inconsistency when I try to print. Even if I tell the print
dialogue that I have portrait mode paper loaded, it printed my document tiles in
landscape.

Rainer is correct that if I change the text to curves, the tile printing does
work. However this now makes editing the text a real pain.

A worse problem is that I still don't understand why there is a "tile pages"
selection within the options and also a "print on multiple pages" option after
sending a document to print. If I select "tile pages", why am I being asked to
print on multiple pages?

Currently I am leaving the "tile pages" option off and just letting the "print
on multiple pages" handle things. The "tile pages" option appears to be
superfluous and is apparently NOT looked at when the second print dialogue
checks to see if the document fits on a page.

To make this clear, I believe the page tiling subsystem is broken. There appears
to be a workaround but it is not ideal. Moreover the current user interface and
paper handling are a mess.
