Thanks for the bug report. I have informed the upstream author of the pdftopdf filter. He usually supplies fixes quickly.

Duplicate of bug #822684, cups pdftopdf is already automatically rotating landscape input pdf when -o fitplot is used.
Leaving the orientation to Portrait wit Fit to Page should work around the problem.
