What I do is print to Cups-PDF, it comes out Portrait. Then I go into Approach's page set up and change it back to Landscape and print again. The setting does not hold in Approach. Changing printers picks up the defaults from CUPS. It is annoying.
I'm wondering if you're missing a step. In most authoring software, you have to set the page format to landscape or portrait. This isn't a printer setting, it's data about the actual document. This will be the default print layout used when you get around to printing it.
e.g. In various word processors, you have style formatting options per character, per paragraph, and then the whole page.
Hi Tim,
In Approach, when you set up your report, you choose a "paper" size. Approach gets it from the default print driver for the page. You can set it to whatever the printer supports.
Cups-PDF is not the default printer, so when you print to it, you have to set the page up again. "Supposedly" when you save the Approach file, it saves the new settings, but this is the exception. It saves everything else.
