| Summary | 0000938: Add LandscapeOrientation attribute to PPDE | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| Revision | 2018-02-20 14:30 by rijkr | ||
| Description | IST: Most PPD files contain an attribute called LandscapeOrientation, with value Plus90 (default) or Minus90, that describes how landscape oriented pages are rotated to fit the portrait mode "Finished Page". In Plus90 mode, landscape pages are -90 rotated to fit the "Finished Page", and the user must +90 rotate after printing, to get it into tangible landscape view again. Minus90 is vice versa. SavaPage creates IPP print jobs that are effectively printed according to Minus90. In this way, staple-top-right makes sense for landscape viewed pages. As the CUPS number-up option still behaves according to the original PPD LandscapeOrientation attribute, SavaPage corrects with appropriate number-up-layout and orientation-requested options, to get the overall Minus90 effect for number-up printed sheets that have landscape view. SOLL: Because SavaPage assumes that all target proxy printers behave according to the Plus90 default, any exception must be entered in a PPDE like this: *LandscapeOrientation: Minus90 P.S. When nevertheless number-up printed sheets do not turn out as expected, corrections can be made with SPRule/number-up (see 0000868). |
