Re: QTRgui - Forced landscape rotation

2007-02-04 by Mike Dawson

Stephen,

Thanks for the reply.  It sounds like you're saying that you don't 
know why QTRgui would start doing this.  I know about the auto-rotate 
option (which I usually have selected).  This was definitely not 
happening when I loaded the image.  It was happening when I pressed 
the "Print" button.

Let me ask you this.  The one picture I was trying to print was 
square but perhaps 0.1" inch wider than taller.  The other image that 
did this was the ink separation calibration image, which is wider 
than taller.  The calibration page would load in landscape 
orientation as expected.  I would then change the orientation to 
portrait.

Do you think this could be the issue?  You say auto-rotation is not 
supposed to happen at print time.  But maybe that is what is actually 
happening???

Mike
