Comment 24 for bug 166678

The patch committed in https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/179988/comments/177 has fixed the scale and rotation problem described in comment 20. I have tested printing with the current SVN inkscape on Linux and Windows. There are two remaining problems affecting print orientation and size:

1) gtk_page_setup_set_orientation() needs to be called with the orientation of the paper. I'm attaching a patch that fixes this. The patch has a bug where opening an existing landscape document and printing it does not work. The document properties dialog needs to first be opened and the landscape option reselected before printing. I'm sure one of the Inkscape developers knows a better way to get the page orientation for use in print.cpp.

2) Windows has a print offset problem. Bug report and patch at https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/373309
