Severity: normal

Sample document for two 8.5x11 sheets
Problem description: When I attempt to print a sign, 18x24 inches on two
sheets, the Draw overrides the page orientation and divides the sign to come
out on four(!) sheets. I have tried rotating the sign, but the same problem
occurs. To print the sign, I have to "print to file", then rotate 180 degrees
and "print to file" again. In this way, I can open the document once in Adobe
reader and print one half, the open the rotated sign and print the other half!
I send you a 10x16 page example in case you don't have a wide format printer
handy. It fails the same way and wants to print on four sheets.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Select "File" then "Printer Settings".
2. Select "Properties" then "Paper".
3. Choose 8.5x11 and "Portrait".
4. Click "OK" then "OK" to return to drawing.
5. Select "File" them "Print".
6. On the "General" tab, select "Properties".
7. Confirm 8.5x11 and "Portrait" and click "OK".
8. Note that the page orientation in the preview does not change.
9. On the "LibreOffice Draw" tab, select "Distribute on Multiple sheets of
paper". Click "OK".
10. Note that the number of pages increases from 1 to 4, still with landscape
orientation.
11. Check page "General" -"Properties" and observe that the orientation is
still shown to be "Portrait", although the preview shows landscape.
Alternate Method:
1. Rotate drawing and page 90 degrees, and adjust position of drawing on page.
2. Repeat steps above, selecting "Landscape" instead of "Portrait". Similar
behavior observed.
Current behavior: Printer prints 4 pages
Expected behavior: Should easily accomodate on 2 pages
Operating System: openSUSE
Version: 4.1.1.2 rc
