printing page in landscape instead of portrait in spite of correct instructions in the settings

[RodeDraak]

When printing a document ,after saving a page from the internet as a pdf file, the printer insists on printing in landscape in spite of the standard setting of portrait.

Does this happen because it is a pdf document?

I have changed the setting to portrait/landscape suited to the document and that seems to work for a Word document.

By default, it will print the layout from pdf file. Using pdf reader (Adobe reader) you can over the layout as shown

        

then Print.

Thanks for the answer, but I have already done as you suggested.
The document in pdf came in portrait,the setting for print was portrait, but the document printed in landscape.

After that I changed the printinstruction to portrait (again), but with the same result.
I have now changed the setting to portrait/landscape following the document - see what happens.

Is it possible for a pdf to have a setting for landscape, although on opening it shows up as portrait?

I would have to ask the sender, if a mistake has been made on their part.
