Bug#779178: ghostscript: Landscape document rotate CCW not CW
Package: ghostscript
Version: 9.06~dfsg-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
When printing a landscape document from any application such as Libreoffice writer, it is rotated to a portrait document.
>From ealier version until Wheezy, it was rotated by clockwise(CW). However, in case of Jessie, it is rotated by counter clockwise(CCW).
To print an address and name on an envelope, upper and bottom side are fixed. Many already formed documents are assumed as rotating by CW.
To keep conpativility and avoid unnecessary maintenance of documents, landscape document should rotate by CW.
I'm not sure the exact module, but I think pdftopdf owns the function which might be reacently rewitten.
