Iin vim 7.3.386, I have "set printoptions=portrait:n,paper:ledger" in my vimrc, but

Hm, If I try this, it seems to work as expected. Can you show us, what
you expect (porribly a screenshot of orientation of the generated ps
file).
Well, I've "solved" it--on this system, at least, "portrait" orientation for ledger is really landscape! "portrait:y" (or just leaving it
out entirely) gives landscape in combo with "paper:ledger". With no "paper" option (defaults to A4), or with "A4", "letter" or
"legal", "portrait:n" behaves as expected.
This is actually documented. If you look carefully under :help letter
(or :help a4), you'll see that "ledger" is defined as 17 inch wide by 11
inch tall. Paper sheets the same size, but taller than wide (i.e. 11x17
instead) are called "tabloid".
Best regards,
Tony.
