Description Enrico 2006-06-21 11:56:10 UTC
Please describe the problem:
Print a pdf document
in the print dialog select Paper options or what's called,
In the "Disposition" or what's called dropdown menu select
"Two pages in one sheet".
In the mini-preview on the right the correct result appears but when you 
actually print, it prints one page per sheet
(ubuntu 5.10)

Steps to reproduce:
1. print dialog
2. select two pages per sheet in paper options tab
3. print it


Actual results:
it prints one page per sheet

Expected results:
should print two pages per sheet

Does this happen every time?
it does happen everytime

Other information:
in kpdf the option functions correctly but it's fonts are too ugly to be usable
Comment 1 Enrico 2006-06-21 13:43:23 UTC
Actually this bug very probably belongs to gnome-print since this feature 
doesn't work in abiword (for example) either
Comment 2 jobezone 2006-11-09 00:25:43 UTC
This also happens with me, but I use Ubuntu 6.10, and the package in question is libgnomeprint2.2-0 . Maybe this comment should be disregarded, because I use a more recent version of the software then the submitter.

Anyway, just in case it could be useful, I've also submitted a bug about this problem with Ubuntu at https://launchpad.net/distros/ubuntu/+source/gnome-print/+bug/70988
