Bug Description
I use qpdfview 0.4.16 on Linux, CUPS 2.1.4 and a Postscript/PDF laser printer.
I want to print a PDF document with
- 2 pages per sheet and
- Duplex.
I would like to control the orientation of the back side using 'Options / Duplex printing' and either 'long side' or 'short side'. But the result is always 'long side' - even if I select 'short side'.
If I print directly from LibreOffice using '2 pages per sheet' and 'Duplex', I can control orientation of the back side using 'Properties/Duplex' and 'DuplexTumble' or 'DuplexNoTumble'.
If I print from qpdfview using '1 page per sheet' and 'Duplex', I can control the orientation of the back side using 'Options / Duplex printing' and either 'long side' or 'short side'. But it doesn't work if I select "2 pages per sheet".

I've had the problem described above as long as I've been using qpdfview (2 or 3 years perhaps?).
Apart from this, I really love qpdfview and use it almost daily.
