If a PDF/PS file contains pages that are different sizes or rotated the output doesn't looks good. Print is cut off etc. I have to open the file with "evince" and print it. I was trying to sent a print job via "evince" without opening the file form a commands line, but I don't think it is possible. I've "Adobe Reader 9" but I can not even print correctly standard documents, something is messed up; the orientation is not correct. -- Joseph
