Wrong orientation of backsides of landscape pages when printing with Acrobat Pro 9

[Arthur_...@adobeforums.com]

Since I switched to Acrobat 9 I have the following problem:

Two landscape orientated documents that were printed identically with Acrobat 8 are printed different with Acrobat 9 (backsides of the document are rotated 180 degrees). The documents have the following properties:
Landscape doc 1:
- Media & crop box: [0 0 595 842] Rotation: 90 degrees.
Landscape doc 2:
- Media & crop box: [0 0 842 595] Rotation: 0 degrees.

I am using the identical driver. If I check the generated postscript I see that they have a different orientation (portrait vs. landscape) and a different viewing orienation (1 0 0 1 + 0 1 -1 0 vs. 0 1 -1 0 + 0 1 -1 0). Anyone an explanation for this difference?

Please repost in the Acrobat forum. The PostScript driver has not changed in many years and is not the variable here. Acrobat generates its own PostScript. The driver simply funnels it to the device.
