Bug Description

When printing any document using 6 pages per side (under the page setup tab), the selected page ordering is ignored.

The default page ordering shows as left-to-right,top-to-bottom, with a diagram:

123
456

But what actually previews or prints is:

246
135

That layout doesn't change, regardless of the selected ordering.

This occurs under any application that uses the normal gnome print dialog.

Test file, and two screen shots showing the output from two different settings.

And it works fine under 2up, 4up, 9up, and 16up. Only 16up is broken. Coincidently, this is also the only mode that uses landscape layout in a non-trivial manner.

Sorry, previous comment should have said "Only 6up is broken". 16up works fine.

This occurs in jaunty as well as in karmic, and I have a vague memory of tripping over this in previous versions as well.
