I found this bug too in a 11 pages PDF, though... version 3.2.0

I suspect that the "reverse" is causing it to first reorder the pages and then internally number them, which has the effect of swapping the even/odd parity if the total number is even. Steps to repro: Load into evince a document with an even number of pages (e.g. attached) Ctrl-P to print Click the "Reverse" checkbox Click "Page setup" tab From "Only print" pulldown, choose "Even sheets" Click Print Printer will print pages 3 and 1 in that order. Choosing "Odd sheets" will yield pages 4 and 2. Following the same steps with a similar document of three pages will (correctly) get page 2 for the "Even sheets" and pages 3 and 1 for "Odd sheets". This is a problem because the natural way to print double-sided with a non-duplex printer is to print the evens in reverse order, then refeed the stack and print the odds in the correct order. (So page 2 is the last page printed in the first batch, and its back, page 1, is the first page in the second batch.) Following that algorithm with this bug in place gives you all the even sides twice.
