Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: evince
If you create a custom paper type where the page width is larger than
the page height evince will always orient the paper so that the longer
dimension is the height. Switching the orientaion to lansdcape will make
the dimensons correct but then the pdf file is sideways.
To replicate:
Try creating a custom paper type that is 5 in x 3 in. Print a document that is
wider than it is tall. The resulting pdf file will have your content jammed at
the top of a page that is 3 in x 5 in.
This is in Hardy Heron evince-2.22.2-0ubuntu1
