Description ccheney 2008-03-15 23:44:17 UTC

Using OO spreadsheet (but appears to happen for all of OOo). Paper is set to
letter, orientation set to landscape. Preview and printing both remain in
portrait mode.

Format->Page - Orientation

File->Print->Properties - Orientation

File->Printer Settings->Properties - Orientation

OOo appears to disregard what is set in the Printer Properties and uses whatever
is set in Format->Page.

Perhaps the bug is that it shouldn't let the user think they can change
orientation in the printer driver?

The same is true for all other settings you can make there. These settings have
only meaning for applications that do not explicitly override them; the only
candidate I don't know to do that nowadays is the Database component.

However this is the case since OOo 1.0.0 and does not seem to be a big point of
contention.

fixed by the changes for issue 99162, the printer properties are not overridden
anymore.
