I also use the Export to PDF option. Feels like a lot less work to me!
LOL
What is curious to me, is how this issue escaped notice in the "stable"
version, which is meant for those that don't want to deal with issues.
As well as my thread about opening remote files, which I just discovered
affects more than the remote files I mentioned in my original post.

I get that issue many times with 64-bit DEB version.
A lot of the times when I see that issue I do a "trick". I choose a
different printer, then do a "print preview". After that, I go back to
the original printer and look at the print preview option. Sometimes
that works. Why - who knows. If it does not work the first time, I try
going to a different printer on my network, Most times the "trick"
works after the second try.
I have 2 Canon inkjet printers that I use most, and the newest has an
internal "filter" deciding what paper tray "IT" wants the document paper
type will be printed. With the "bug" of not allowing the user to choose
paper orientation, paper tray, and even paper size, is the biggest issue
I have right now.
Yes, the orientation issue is a pain to deal with, along with the other
printing controls, but there is at least an option to export it it a PDF
file and use your PDF document reader and print the document[s] from
that package. It still is a pain to do this. Hopefully the bug will be
fixed soon, like other ones that creep up from time to time.

I create a document in portrait orientation.
Print Preview is correct.
PDF export is correct.
Printing is not. The document displays and print as landscape.
Create a landscape document, and printing is correct.
Bug?
