Hi Richard,

These things can prevent MapInfofrom using the printer information in the
workspaces:

1. Preferences > Statup > Load printer setting from workspace: This
checkbox should be checked, if you want to load the printer information
from your workspaces. (I'm not sure if "Load printer setting from
workspace" is the right text. I'm using a Danish MapInfo ...)

2. If the named printer/printerdriver in the workspace is not found on your
system, MapInfo used the default printer, and the the default printer
setting,
often Portrait if you haven't changed it.

3. You could delete the reference to the printer anem in the workspace and
only keep the Orientation and Papersize information. In this way MapInfo
would use the default printer and try to set the papersize/orientation on
this printer. Of course not all printer support ISO-A0 !!

Has anyone else had the following problem, and if so, is there anything
able
to be done to rectify it?

When i return to many of my workspaces the Layouts have often reverted to
Portraits when they should be Landscape.  Even examining the .wor code in
WorkspaceControl shows the layouts to be "orientation Landscape..." .  My
question is, is this likely to be a MapInfo thing, or might it be due to my
printer / driver?  The printer being used is an HP2500, which many of you
will know are temperamental at the best of times.  Another thing is, this
doesnt affect all workspaces, just some.
