I updated to ubuntu 12.10 and now I am affected by this bug. I followed the advice: "Open any LibreOffice app and go to File=>Printer Settings=>Properties=>Device tab. Is the "Printer Language type" set to PDF? If so, it's probably https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44664. The workaround is to change the printer language to Postscript (level from driver). See this thread: Libreoffice doesn't print landscape files properly" from this link: http://forums.opensuse.org/english/get-technical-help- here/applications/473302-problems-printing-landscape-libreoffice- suse-12-1-a.html
