Public bug reported:
In openoffice or libreoffice, printing a page with landscape orientation
to a cups-pdf device produces a PDF which does not know it is in
landscape, and therefore appears rotated when viewed with acroread, gv,
etc.
The image is correct and prints correctly, it is just side-ways when
viewed online.
A pdf produced by Libre Office's "export to PDF" function does not have
this problem, i.e., the landscape pages know they are landscape in the
PDF and so they are displayed correctly in acroread.
Please see the following attachments:
test.doc -- contains a single page in landscape orientation with some text
test_via_libre-export-to-pdf.pdf -- the result of "export to PDF" in Libre
Office (sideways when viewed)
test_via_cups-pdf.pdf -- the result of "printing" to a cups-pdf device
(correct when viewed)
