Aug 26, 2016 Office compatibility: LibreOffice provides cross-suite compatibility with Microsoft Office, handling most of its important file formats. The update includes better support for Apple's Pages.
Since I installed 5.4.0, Writer docs in portrait have appeared in Print Preview and have printed as landscape, regardless of what I have done in Format Page. I tried again, applied, saved, restarted &c. but finally had to deal with problem by saving as Microsoft Word .doc, then opening and printing with old Microsoft software. Time constraints on a present project prevent me from spending more time on this now, but I hope someone can tell whether the error is mine or this is a bug.

I just started experiencing this issue of rotated text when printing in LO 5.3.5.2 on MacOS 10.11.6.I'm pretty sure this started spontaneously (not related to an update that I can recall.)
Happens with existing documents as well as newly created ones
This is 'Office Space' level frustration!
This is happening to me and is obviously a bug in the program. Many others have complained of this issue. It makes LibreOffice useless to me. I'm going back to OpenOffice.
This just started happening to me. v5.3.7.2. The work aound to set paper width to 8.52' worked.
