[Desktop-packages] [Bug 276369] Re: Problems with printing landscape PDFs
Ubuntu, what happened? Can't even print pdfs reliably. Do I have to buy a mac? Ugh. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276369 Title: Problems with printing landscape PDFs Status in Evince document viewer: Fix Released Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: evince 1. Open the attached PDF 2. Select File - Print Setup 3. Set Orientation to Landscape 4. Select File - Print - Print Preview 5. Preview shows a page in Portrait format with the overlapping part of the landscape PDF cut off. Exactly the same happens when actually printing. I am not sure if the result ought to be (a) a portrait printout containing the *rotated* landscape PDF or (b) a landscape printout containing the unrotated landscape PDF, but clearly the current behaviour is very wrong. It also seems to me that variant (a). is more likely to produce the desired result with all printers, but I might be wrong. I'm using hardy.

Portrait, landscape, no different. What's the point of new whiz bang UI's if the OS can't print? ** Attachment added: fail.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/276369/+attachment/3442946/+files/fail.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to evince in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/276369 Title: Problems with printing landscape PDFs Status in Evince document viewer: Fix Released Status in “evince” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: Binary package hint: evince 1.
