Bug Description
Binary package hint: evince
1. Open the attached PDF
2. Select File -> Print Setup
3. Set Orientation to Landscape
4. Select File -> Print -> Print Preview
5. Preview shows a page in Portrait format with the "overlapping" part of the landscape PDF cut off.
Exactly the same happens when actually printing.
I am not sure if the result ought to be (a) a portrait printout containing the *rotated* landscape PDF
or (b) a landscape printout containing the unrotated landscape PDF, but clearly the current behaviour is very wrong.
It also seems to me that variant (a). is more likely to produce the desired result with all printers, but I might be wrong.
I'm using hardy.
