Background: In my everyday work at the university I often have to print pdf files that contain "powerpoint slides" from course presentations etc. Those slides are usually a) in landscape orientation and b) use huge fonts. One typically wants to print four of this slides per sheed of paper.

The problem: I use evince-0.7 on Ubuntu Feisty to print my pdf files. In the print dialogue I can choose to print 4-on-1. Nice. But the pages appear in an hard to read order on the sheet.

The reason might be, that evince threads the pages / sheet as portrait mode when I use 4-on-1 printing.


Steps to reproduce:
Print 4 landscape pages on a sheet


Actual results:
Result with evince-0.7
