PS test case (2.15 KB, text/plain)

Description Mike 2013-02-25 00:35:58 UTC 
I print a document from a personal app written in Java to file in A4 size, landscape. It saves a file in PS-Adobe-3.0 format.Part of the file shows size:
<< /PageSize [595.2755737304688 841.8897705078125] /DeferredMediaSelection true /ImagingBBox null /ManualFeed false /NumCopies 1 >>

Then load the output into Evince Document Viewer and it is chopped off. A look at "File/Properties" shows "US Letter, Portrait (216 × 279 mm)". 

If I print direct to printer from the original app then it prints correctly on A4. 

If I load the file in a different pdf app such as flpsed it correctly shows properties as Size=A4.

Other minor bug. Clicking any link in the Help file or the About window has no effect whatsoever.

NB: The attachment is in portrait as my landscape example is confidential. The Viewer always shows properties as Portrait, regardless.

There is no document attached.  Unfortunately, without a test case is harder to reproduce issues.

Please, attach a test case.
