Landscape Orientation Reversed With Postscript Driver

 Last reviewed: March 21, 1997
Article ID: Q128567

The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Windows NT Workstation versions 3.5 and 3.51
  • Microsoft Windows NT Server versions 3.5 and 3.51

SYMPTOMS

When you print a page in landscape orientation with a PostScript driver under Windows NT 3.5 or 3.51, the text is in the opposite corner of where the landscape text is when printing with a Windows NT PCL driver. This is not consistent with the Windows 95, Windows, Windows for Workgroups, or the Windows NT 3.1 PostScript drivers.

RESOLUTION

To correct this problem, upgrade to Windows NT 3.51 (if you have not already done so) and install the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.51.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Windows NT version 3.5 and 3.51. This problem has been corrected in the latest U.S. Service Pack for Windows NT version 3.51.
