If I take a two page ps file and cat the output.pcl file to the printer it 
prints normally with no flipping. 
Then I took the ps file an printed it with KGhostView which was also ok. 
After that I tried another file. This time I printed a PDF with KPDF an the 
error occurs, the pages are flipped. At that moment I wondered if it could be 
only kpdf because I mostly print my pdf files with that, but I also tried: 
"lpr test.pdf" and even in that case the pages are flipped. The same file 
printed with Adobe Acrobat 7.0 is ok, no flipping.

I have to say, I have no idea, where the problem could be and I ask me, where 
is the difference between Acrobat and lpr for example.

... I'll try that later today.


Thanks!
