           Summary: Double-sided printing inserts blank pages.
           Product: okular
           Version: 0.12.5
          Platform: Mageia RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: okular-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: pf at pfortin.com


Version:           0.12.5
OS:                Linux

When printing double sided, okular prints 2 pages, followed by 3 BLANK pages,
repeating this cycle until the end of the document.

This results in printed output like this:

Odd-Side  Even-Side

Page 1    Page 2      # first group
blank     blank
blank     Page 3
Page 4    blank
blank     blank

Page 5    Page 6      # second group
blank     blank
blank     Page 7
Page 8    blank
blank     blank

Pattern repeats for entire printout...


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Print double-sided.  

Actual Results:  
Prints pages 1,2,blank,blank,blank and repeats this cycle for the entire job
(see above).

Expected Results:  
No blank pages.

What made it awkward to debug was the need to print a long file.  On short
files, it *appeared* to be the printer picking multiple sheets.  To make sure
it is not the file itself (seen on many short files), I copied the file from
Linux to W7 running in VirtualBox and printed it from there -- printed fine.

Couldn't find 0.14+ RPM to test...
