Ghostscript merge of pdf's is causing orientation to flip?

TJR, you could try to play with adding one of the following commandline parameters to your Ghostscript call.

TJR, you could try to play with adding one of the following commandline parameters to your Ghostscript call: -dAutoRotatePages=/None -dAutoRotatePages=/All -dAutoRotatePages=/PageByPage If this doesn't change the outcome, try this instead: gswin32c. Exe ^ -o c:/path/to/output. Pdf ^ -sDEVICE=pdfwrite ^ -dPDFSettings=/prepress ^ -dAutoRotatePages=/None ^ -c "> setpagedevice" ^ -f /path/to/first.

Pdf ^ /path/to/second. Pdf ^ /path/to/third. Pdf The part with /Orientation 0 should turn all pages to portrait.

Using 3 should make it landscape (1 for seascape, 2 for upside down). However, this will not work reliably, because (some of) your source files may be containing weird page orientation and rotation settings of their own. In this case only a 'repair' of the source files one by one will be able to fix this....

Viewed individually, the source pdf's are all orientated the same. The source pdf's were generated through the application Scribus. – TJR May 12 at 14:18 @TJR: Which viewer did you use?

Which viewer settings? Be aware, that viewers may be set to auto-rotate pages for viewing depending on the predominant flow direction of text strings on the page (or whatever the viewer deems "predominant"). Also, there may be a sort of "rotate for viewing" flag embedded on pages... – pipitas May 12 at 15:08 @TJR: Can you provide a couple of example PDF files which display the behaviour you describe?

Then I would take a closer look at them and tell you my results... – pipitas May 12 at 16:57 @TJR: Which version of Ghostscript did you use? (The newest one is v9.02). – pipitas May 12 at 16:58.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
