[Pkg-dia-team] Bug#601356: dia: Page orientation always Portrait when exporting to PDF

[George B.]

Package: dia
Version: 0.97.1-7
Severity: normal

Hello,

Not sure if PDF export is handled by Dia directly - please redirect if appropriate.

If I change page orientation in Dia to "landscape" and export to PDF the resulting PDF is seen by viewer as "portrait" (although the content is arranged correctly). It is necessary to rotate the image in the viewer to be able to read it (or suffer from neck pain).

Is it possible to have the page orientation set correctly on export?


Thanks,

George.
