            Bug ID: 142247
           Summary: Envelopes with vertical orientation print horizontally
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 7.0.4.2 release
          Hardware: All
                OS: Mac OS X (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Writer
          Assignee: libreoffice-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
          Reporter: ww.galen at gmail.com

Description:
Attempting to print an envelope in vertical orientation results in an envelope
printed horizontally (text is rotated 90° & is cut off at envelope edge).

LibreOffice 6.4.6002 works as expected. The preview in the print dialog shows
the orientation that ends up being printed. In LO 6.4, it shows an envelope
with vertical orientation; in 7.0 and 7.1, the preview shows an envelope with
horizontal orientation. Left, right or center alignment does not seem to affect
this issue.

Steps to Reproduce:
Prerequisite: a printer that takes envelopes short-edge first.

1. Start envelope wizard: Insert → Envelope 
2. Fill out "Addressee" and "Sender" fields on "Envelope" tab.
3. Switching to the "Printer" tab, select a vertical orientation (aligned left,
right or center, as appropriate to printer).
4. Set any other options on "Printer" tab appropriate for printer.
5. Click "New Document" button to close wizard and create new envelope
document.
6. Feed envelope into printer.
7. Start printing: File → Print (or ⌘P, or click print button)
8. Note orientation in print dialog: it should be vertical (but, in tests, is
horizontal).
9. Click "Print" button.


Actual Results:
Text is rotated 90° relative to normal orientation of envelope, so it's all
printed near one edge. Due to envelope width, address is cut off.

Expected Results:
Text on envelope has standard orientation: sender in upper left corner, address
in middle.


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: Yes

OS: OS X 10.14.6
