Description Till Maas 2009-07-04 14:06:43 UTC
Description of problem:
I once changed the orientation in the okular printing dialog to landscape and then back to portrait after printing. I was able to print several pdf files in portrait, but some documents are always printed in landscape modus by default. Even when I changed it to portrait, printed and then opened the print dialog again, landscape was selected.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
kdegraphics-4.2.4-1.fc10

How reproducible:
For the one document: always.

Additional info:
In KDE 3 it was possible to change some options in the printing dialog only once, this is missing in KDE 4. Also okular does not remember that I opened the "Options" in the printing dialog to unhide important printing information.

Comment 1 Till Maas 2009-07-07 21:15:39 UTC
Steps to reproduce:

1. yum install pdfjam
2. wget http://www-i9.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/dateien/lehre/57/2-1%20dw.pdf
3. pdfnup --nup 2x2 "2-1 dw.pdf"
4. okular "2-1 dw-2x2.pdf"
5. Hit CTRL-P (printing from the file menu)
6. Hit ALT-r (Properties button)
7. Notice that Landscape is selected

If "Landscape" is selected, the document won't be printed some printers, e.g. the both I tried so far. Since this option is well hidden, it is also a big source of frustration to always have to change this.

Comment 2 Steven M. Parrish 2009-09-08 02:49:43 UTC
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue.

This is an issue that needs to be addressed by the upstream developers. Please report this at http://bugs.kde.org and then add the upstream report information to this report.  We will monitor the upstream report for a resolution to this issue, and will review any bug fixes that become available for consideration in future updates.

Setting status to NEEDINFO, and awaiting upstream bug report URL for tracking.

Thanks in advance.

There is a 8 month old bug report in KDE Bugzilla that seems to be the same bug :-(

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2009-11-18 12:08:53 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 10.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '10'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 10's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 10 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 5 Steven M. Parrish 2009-11-18 21:40:25 UTC
Rebasing to Rawhide.

Comment 6 Bug Zapper 2010-03-15 12:41:04 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 13 development cycle.
Changing version to '13'.

Comment 7 Reartes Guillermo 2011-05-02 17:04:55 UTC
I am using KDE 4.6.2, Fedora 15 beta.

I put this also in https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=181290

I noticed that okular is unable to detect the orientation
of some (landscape) pdf properly, then i found about this bugreport...

----

PTST_Landscape01.pdf --> single-page landscape document
PTST_Portrait01.pdf ---> single-page portrait document

----

Okular:

* Print PTST_Landscape01.pdf (default - LANDSCAPE) -> BAD ( !! a landscape doc in portrait !!)
* Print PTST_Landscape01.pdf (orientation to PORTRAIT) -> GOOD (! Incorrect behaviour !)

* Print PTST_Portrait01.pdf (default - PORTRAIT) -> GOOD
* Print PTST_Portrait01.pdf (orientation to LANDSCAPE) -> BAD (Correct behaviour)

  
LibreOffice

* Print PTST_Landscape01.pdf (default - LANDSCAPE) -> GOOD
* Print PTST_Landscape01.pdf (orientation to PORTRAIT) -> BAD (Correct behaviour)

* Print PTST_Portrait01.pdf (default - PORTRAIT) -> GOOD
* Print PTST_Portrait01.pdf (orientation to LANDSCAPE) -> BAD (Correct behaviour)

I just configured LibreOffice-Writer as the default pdf application as a workaround.

Since i am using F15, please do not close the bugreport when F13 enters EOL.

Comment 9 Kevin Kofler 2011-06-06 00:21:36 UTC
Here's a build for Fedora 15 for testing:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=246374

Comment 10 Kevin Kofler 2011-06-06 00:39:58 UTC
A build for Fedora 14 (4.6.3) is now available for testing:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=246376
A build for Fedora 13 (4.5.5) is now running:
http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=246378

I would like some confirmation that the patch works before pushing updates.


To be clear, "Landscape" will be selected in the printing dialog if the document is landscape, but the fix is that this will no longer rotate the document when you hit OK (so the check in comment #1 is NOT sufficient, you have to actually print the document to verify that the bug is fixed). The option preselected by default does not rotate the document, picking the other option will force rotation of the document (which is the sensible thing to do: "Landscape" now actually means Landscape).

Comment 11 Kevin Kofler 2011-06-06 00:44:36 UTC
PS: The feedback is also needed for getting the patch applied in upstream Okular.

Comment 12 Fedora Update System 2011-06-11 15:48:58 UTC
kdegraphics-4.5.5-2.fc13 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 13.
https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kdegraphics-4.5.5-2.fc13

Comment 13 Kevin Kofler 2011-06-11 15:54:11 UTC
This will be fixed for Fedora 14 and 15 with the KDE SC 4.6.4 bugfix update already in preparation.

Comment 14 Kevin Kofler 2011-06-11 15:54:49 UTC
(Please note that the patch is NOT in upstream 4.6.4 or even 4.7 yet, upstream wants more testing to be done.)
