Description of problem: For landscape oriented printouts the final drawing seems to be incorrectly rotated to -90 degrees and is clipped. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): libgnomeprint-2.18.8-1.mga1 How reproducible: Compile and launch test-print.c from the tests supplied. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open the test-prinout.c with editor. 2. Append line 'gnome_print_config_set( config, (guchar*)(char*)GNOME_PRINT_KEY_PAGE_ORIENTATION, (guchar*)(char*)"R90" );' after the line #23. 3. Compile and launch test-printout and see o.ps file. Another method to reproduce this problem is to compile and launch examples from libgnomeprinui 2.18.6-1.mga1 and try various logical page orientations.
I really know that libgnomeprint was deprecated by Gnome team long time ago. But for wxgtk users (Kicad for example) there is no real alternative to gnomeprint. I did some investigations for this problem. And I have a solution how to fix this problem for now. I am ready to submit my patches to Mageia team if you would like.

Created attachment 1682 [details] This patch fixes orientation issues for printouts.
Created attachment 1683 [details] This patch fixes orientation issues for preview. This is not a real patch, it is a workaround to compensate the preview_orientation patch influence to preview. Unfortunately I didn't find another way to do it.
Created attachment 1684 [details] This is an optional patch to update the PS comments with actual media type.
Just posted. ps Sorry for my english.

To Samuel VERSCHELDE: Yes, sure. It solved my problem.
This message is a reminder that Mageia 1 is nearing its end of life. In approximately 25 days from now, Mageia will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Mageia 1. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX (EOL) if it remains open with a Mageia 'version' of '1'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Mageia version prior to Mageia 1's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Mageia 1 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. -- Mageia Bugsquad
