the problem deals with the PRINTER DRIVER. SO I report the same bug affecting Kubuntu 17.04 and Brother MFC-L2700DW series with driverless cups filter 1.13.

When printing with CUPS 1.6.x or newer print jobs in PDF format are first treated by the pdftopdf filter (of cups-filters). One thing this filter does is rotating Landscape-oriented pages by 90 degrees for printers which take their paper only short-edge first (portrait orientation). For this rotation not the actual file content is rotated, but a rotation field is set (usually incremented by 90). You can see it by running pdfinfo on the input and on the output of pdftopdf. If the first page of the PDF file is Landscape-oriented, the Page rot: entry will change by 90 degrees. I have displayed such a PDF file with several different viewers (evince, gs, gv) and the rotation field is taken into account, Landscape-oriented pages are rotated. Only when I run such a file through pdftops -origpagesizes the rotation is not taken into account and in the resulting PostScript file the Landscape-oriented pages appear unrotated, leading to wrong printouts when the /usr/lib/cups/filter/pdftops filter calls pdftops -origpagesizes. This was leading to the wrong printouts the users complained about in the bug reports. The workaround of dropping -origpagesizes works well if all pages of the input document are of the same size but if they are variable sizes, pages can get cut or squeezed (this is why I contributed the -origpagesizes mode to Poppler earlier). I looked into the implementation of -origpagesizes and realized that I forgot to take the rotation field into account. I also realized that the paperMatch mode of the normal PostScript output mode (if you run pdftops without -paper, -paperw, and -paperh) is very similar to -origpagesizes and takes the rotation field into account. So my attached patch folds the -origpagesizes mode implenmentation into paperMatch and only does slight modifications. The original paperMatch mode behavior is conserved to not break other programs using it. The differences of the new -origpagesizes mode are the following: 1. The rotation fields of the input PDF pages are taken into account. 2. The %%DocumentMedia: ... and following %%+ ... lines are removed. Most PostScript displayers assume all pages being of the size in the %%DocumentMedia: ... line. Without these lines they have no problems displaying each page in the correct size. 3. The output pages are never centered, -origpagesizes activates -nocenter implicitly. Normally, there should be no difference as the output pages get the sizes of the input pages but there are some odd files which need this measure. With this all PDF input files convert into PS output files where all pages display in the same size and orientation in the input and output files.

[Bug 1243484] Re: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files
The problem is caused by the auto rotation done by pdftopdf which makes the pages rotated to print short-edge-first if the printer requires this. If your original page is portrait and you request landscape, pdftopdf rotates it by 90 degrees and after that pdftopdf applies auto rotation and rotates the page by another 90 degrees putting it upside down (180 degrees). Please try the nopdfAutoRotate option: lp -d queue -o landscape -o nopdfAutoRotate /usr/share/cups/data/default.pdf Is this what you are looking for? All PDF files have already defined geometries for each page and the auto-rotation of pdftopdf rotates landscape pages when the printer pulls in the paper only in portrait orientation. So simply sending a PDF file without the landscape option does usually the right thing. The landscape option makes more sense if the input data has no ready layout, like plain text. texttopdf will layout the text on landscape- oriented pages with this option. So why are you using the landscape option in your particular case? So for text files it would make more sense if pdftopdf ignores the landscape option as texttopdf is already doing the job. For PDF files you usually decide in the desktop application whether it should be landscape-oriented, so here pdftopdf applying a landscape option is also not of much sense. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243484 Title: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1243484/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1243484] Re: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files
Thanks for the clarifications, and the nopdfAutoRotate option does seem to help somehow. However, I believe the problem is still present for a couple of important reasons. The initial report used PDF files and a generic queue as a way to easily expose the problem, but it affects more than this. I generally agree with you that using landscape with stock PDF files does not particularly happen much. - Most importantly, in most recent Linux distributions that have adopted the PDF workflow, this affects also Postscript jobs, which get converted internally to PDF and then handled by pdftopdf. - This breaks the semantics of the job options, and our customers in turn put the blame on us (providing the PPD driver) when this stops working for queues that previously handled the 'landscape' option consistently for their jobs. The core of the issue here is that in spite of the switch to the PDF workflow, there are still a lot of customers with legacy PS output that needs to be handled consistently, and we expect the core of the print system to not interfere with this whenever possible. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243484 Title: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1243484/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1243484] Re: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files
PostScript files are also readily layouted documents as PDF files. So if you create something printable from a desktop app which still sends print jobs in PostScript, you also determine in the app whether the pages are landscape- or portrait-oriented. So on PostScript jobs the landscape option also does not make much sense. And as I said, for plain text landscape should determine the layout used by texttopdf. Can you attach PostScript (or PDF) files where your customers would use the landscape option? And can you tell me why they use the landscape option? Are their printers holding A4 paper to be printed long-edge first?

[Bug 1243484] Re: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files
Not to be pedantic, but while this is not very usual (especially for PS code produced by vanilla applications), it is a lot easier for PS code to be more adaptive. The CUPS test page is actually a good example of this. PDF is generally completely constrained by the page dimensions. The main reason this came up is because of acceptance tests that the QA department of one of our customers ran with the latest versions of Linux distributions. They noticed that the behavior for certain PDF and PS files changed from what it used to be, and whether or not this is a practical everyday use, this in turn was interpreted as not conforming to the expected output. And to the extent that the format of the output changed for the same files with the exact same job options, they were technically correct... -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243484 Title: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1243484/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
[Bug 1243484] Re: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files
The landscape option is a shortcut for the IPP standard option orientation-requested=3 and RFC 2911 (http://tools.ietf.org/search/rfc2911) tells about the meaning of orientation-requested=...: -- This attribute indicates the desired orientation for printed print- stream pages; it does not describe the orientation of the client- supplied print-stream pages. For some document formats (such as 'application/postscript'), the desired orientation of the print-stream pages is specified within the document data. This information is generated by a device driver prior to the submission of the print job. Other document formats (such as 'text/plain') do not include the notion of desired orientation within the document data. In the latter case it is possible for the Printer object to bind the desired orientation to the document data after it has been submitted. It is expected that a Printer object would only support orientations-requested for some document formats (e.g., 'text/plain' or 'text/html') but not others (e.g., 'application/postscript'). This is no different than any other Job Template attribute since section 4.2, item 1, points out that a Printer object may support or not support any Job Template attribute based on the document format supplied by the client. However, a special mention is made here since it is very likely that a Printer object will support orientation-requested for only a subset of the supported document formats. -- Following this, pdftopdf should ignore landscape and orientation- requested and texttopdf and imagetopdf should use it for layouting the job. To server special, size-less PostScript files, the landscape and orientation-requested should also be taken by the pstopdf filter and swap width and length of the page size supplied to Ghostscript for the PS-PDF conversion.

[Bug 1243484] Re: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files
I would tend to agree with your assessment. The cause of the problems right now seem to be some duplication of the handling of these options between the various involved filters, so that should probably be streamlined. For reference, I am attaching the PS test page that was used by our customer to exhibit the issues. It is admittedly handcrafted, so it is not representative of what may be generated by an office application. ** Attachment added: test-tmpl.ps https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1243484/+attachment/3923997/+files/test-tmpl.ps -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to poppler in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1243484 Title: Incorrect handling of orientation when printing PDF files To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/cups-filters/+bug/1243484/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
