RE: [QuadtoneRIP] Re: QTRgui - Forced landscape rotation

2007-02-04 by Stephen Billard

The auto rotation happens only when the picture is loaded or the AutoOrient
option is checked.

Other things that could (somehow) be happening:

The Portrait/Landscape radio box is getting clicked.
The picture is dragged and dropped without your noticing.

There is NO orientation done at printing time. AutoOrient would never rotate the
picture to the wrong aspect.

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
