           Summary: gnumeric cannot print landscape starting in breezy
           Product: Ubuntu
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: gnumeric

This may be related to #17656, but I don't know what gtklp is.  #12541 appears
to a bug with warty, that was fixed in hoary... but now it's basically busted again.

Starting in breezy, if you try to print a spreadsheet in landscape mode, it will
rotate the paper *AND* the text.  As seen in the attached ps file.  The text
should be horizontal, so you use more of the paper... not rotating the paper and
the text (basically printing portrait again).

Also, if you try to print landscape and print to PDF, the setting is not
respected.  

This pretty much makes gnumeric useless, since I can't really think of a
spreadsheet you would want to print portrait.  Typically they're printed landscape.
