Comment 3 for bug 244840

Greg: I installed evince and it nearly works. The pages are printed in landscape, although slightly cropped left and right.

I also tried the options in Adobe Reader again, the only relevant seem to be "Auto Rotate and Center" (checkbox) and "Orientation" (Portrait/Landscape radiobuttons). Of the four resulting choices one actually works: the combination of auto rotate/center with "portrait". All others fail and somehow "portrait" feels counterintuitive, but at least I have a workaround. I assume what Adobe Reader does in that case is the equivalent of JM's proposed approach: it rotates the landscape PDF into portrait orientation and prints the result, which IMO means that landscape printing as such is still broken.
