Ulf Dittmer commented on PDFBOX-4789:
-------------------------------------
I was hoping for PS that looks like the one I attached originally, with the
second PageSetup section that would cause PDF viewers to display it rotated.
I'm more concerned with screen viewing than printing. But PDFBOX-2922 indeed
sounds like there may be limitations (or bugs) in the JDK's print architecture
that make this impossible.
Thanks for your help; the hint about PDFPageable instead of PDFPrintable is an
improvement regardless.
> PDFBox not honoring page orientation when printing PDFs with mixed

> Key: PDFBOX-4789
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-4789
> Project: PDFBox
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Rendering
> Affects Versions: 2.0.19
> Environment: Mac OS X, with Preview used as the PDF and PS viewer
> Reporter: Ulf Dittmer
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: PDFBox PS export bug.pdf, PDFBox PS export bug.pdf.ps,
> PDFtoPS.java, Pageable-PDFBox PS export bug.pdf.ps
>
>
> When using PDFBox to print a PDF containing both portrait and landscape pages
> to PS, the output has only Portrait pages. It's not that the landscape pages
> have been rotated, just that the resulting page has portrait page dimensions.
> Attached is an example PDF, the Java code used for printing to PS, and the
> resulting output.
>
> The PS has a BeingSetup/EndSetup section specifying the orientation only
> ahead of the first page. If I manually add one ahead of the second page with
> appropriate page dimensions ("792.0 612.0" instead of "612.0 792.0"), it
> looks good.
>
> Is this a bug in PDFBox or a bug in the Java print system?
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-3453? leads me to believe it
> might actually be the latter.
