Not able to print pdf files into landscape orientation

i working on r12 imnplementaion have print labels on zebra printer in landscape orientation using acroread through pasta printing. oracle application uses xml publisher generate these pdfs.  printouts come in portrait orientation choose landscape.  have used acroread version 5 , 9.3.3. can me on this? have used below syntaxes:

 

i using

 

acroread -topostscript -pairs -shrink -landscape btlyomshiplabel_3479320_1.pdf btlyomshiplabel_3479320_1.ps |lp -d label

 

and not working.

i found hit on metalink , says should not use –pairs in command line.  if remove –pairs, can’t pass {inline} {outline} parameters.  have tried below commands:

 

cat btlyomshiplabel_3479320_1.pdf |acroread -topostscript  -landscape |lp -d label

cat btlyomshiplabel_3479320_1.pdf |acroread -topostscript  -shrink -landscape |lp -d label

 

thanks & regards

hi swadesh,

 

try using -rotateandcenter option.

 

cat a.pdf | acroread -topostscript -shrink -rotateandcenter | lp -d <printerr>

 

or

 

acroread  -topostscript -pairs -shrink -rotateandcenter a.pdf - | lp -d <printer>

 

 

let me know if helps.

 

regards,

rishi
