Example file to test feature
The autorotation patch is rotating the wrong way. Refer to the PLRM. After correcting this by changing rotate=90 to rotate=270 the only difference in output using your test example is: -%%PageOrientation: Landscape +%%PageOrientation: Portrait I had assumed that your patch was the result of incorrect printing of landscape pages. But all the above difference will do is make landscape pages display incorrectly in gv/evince/okular. It won't effect printing. I am not understanding the purpose of this patch. Yes this patch does nothing. I have made this because of expierience with ghostscript converter to postscript (gs -sDEVICE=pswrite). When I was using gs then psnup was working incorrecly without rotation. But with pdftops everything seems to be OK (Ghostscript doesn't add %%PageOrientation attribute in ps file). Thanks for info.
