           Summary: When printing multiple pages per sheet (such as 2X2)
                    the described order of pages is misleading when

SUMMARY

When trying to print multiple landscapes pdf pages on one sheet of paper also
in landscape format the option to choose the order of pages is still behaving
like it's in portrait mode.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open a multiple pages landscape PDF (such as a presentation) in okular
2. Open the printing dialog, go to properties.
3. set the orientation of the page to landscape (if not already set)
4. choose to print 4(2X2) pages per sheet, also choose page order "left to
right, top to bottom"
5. print the document

OBSERVED RESULT
The printed result has a page order which looks like this
_______________
|  3   |  1   |
|______|______|
|  4   |  2   |
|______|______|

EXPECTED RESULT

I expected it to look like this and I assume that this is the behaviour an
average user would expect.
_______________
|  1   |  2   |
|______|______|
|  3   |  4   |
|______|______|
