Description Olivier Vitrat 2007-03-12 15:04:50 UTC
Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.5.5)
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages

This has been reported in Debian BTS at http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=291352

- Open an TIF file containing an fax upside down
- Use "flip page" ("Seite umklappen") to see the page correctly
- go to print

What you get is an rather strange printout: The pixels are printed right to
left instead of left to right in small blocks of perhaps 8 Pixels.

rotating the image by 90 degree twice does result in the correct printout -
as rotating the paper after printing also does :-)

Confirming this bug.

Setting priority to "LO" (because: fipping works well for viewing on screen; printout in unflipped mode works without problem, and flipping the paper should be easy; flipping can be done in "kview" for TIFFs as well *AND* the printout of flipped TIFFs from kview works flawlessly...)

unmaintained for many years and I will be closing this bug.
