There are several things you need to think about and check here. Did you try changing file > page setup. There's a specific landscape/portrait setting there which is by default on portrait. Also, right in the print window when you use cmd-p or do file > Print there's a place to choose between la

Well, I’ll give you that, Barry. :) Based on that support document, you seem to be right that make layout vertical is for languages that write vertically. However, I still can’t reconcile that with what I was told by sighted colleagues that it changed the page layout from landscape to portrait.

Here is a link to the Textedit help topic. https://help.apple.com/textedit/mac/10.10/index.html?localePath=en.lproj#txted35481 I found it with layout as the keyword. On Oct 24, 2014, at 1:56 AM, Nicholas

Hi Barry, I don’t think it is. For one, it says vertical layout, not vertical text. Secondly, I was told when I printer with horizontal layout that my page was in landscape layout. When I then printed in vertical layout, I was told that I had fixed the problem and my page was in portrait layout

Nic, I believe that the option you are referring to here is for entering vertical text. It does not control the page orientation. I think that you would control that from printing preferences, but you could also go into Textedit preferences and reverse the window dimensions. Hope that helps.

Thanks for confirming. It’s always good to know it’s not just me with some unique combination of weird settings enabled or that I’m just missing something obvious. And no, I haven’t noticed this in any other apps. I just tested Pages and the layout is still portrate by default, and I’m unable to

Hi all, Can someone please confirm they can reproduce this bug? It seems as if TextEdit is now in landscape (or horizontal) layout by default. I only noticed this when a sighted colleague mentioned it after I printed something. Open a document in TextEdit which has at least two lines of text. G
