Bug Description
Binary package hint: kdegraphics
I am trying to print a pdf file landscape oriented. It shows up correctly in okular but prints in portrait regardless of my printer options.
The same pdf printed with xpdf is correctly printed in landscape without touching printer options (xpdf uses lpr to print).
You can check bug #504168 in the cups error log (created when hpijs crashes) the options passed by okular to cups.
My printer is a HP deskjet 970cxi.

When working with landscape pdf, chosing landscape when printing actually prints the document in portrait. Chosing portrait prints the document in landscape.
I think that the portrait/landscape setting in the printing window actually is more like a rotate command: portrait leaves the document alone while landscape rotates it by 90 degrees. This is not always correct, obvioulsy in my case it's not.
Okular I used is from the latest RC debian packages, running on Ubuntu Intrepid.
