Printing problem (want portrait, get landscape)

just started using Version: 5.4.1.2 on the advice of my computer tech. Love it, except that when I try to print (so far just 8.5x11 text documents), it shifts to landscape with the bottom of my doc disappearing off the lefthand side of the page. I’ve tried all the printer settings, but still the same. No other program (Word, OpenOffice, TextEdit) does this. ???

Did you read this recent thread? There are many additional threads with related subjects. Enter “portrait landsacpe” into the search line and you will see.

Start with the link given above. If you ne to come back, tell what your OS, UI language, locale, paper format and printer are and what you already tried yourself to solve the issue.

If you are on a Mac, read the answer by @mikekaganski in this thread.
