Oh boy I'm confused... A couple of years ago I had this problem and somebody
at microsoft *or* aldus (can't remember) fixed me up... when I'm printing 
in landscape orientation my placed EPS files are upside down.
It's as if they were rotating 90 degrees instead of 270, or 90 instead of
-90. 

So there was this wierd line they had me add to my win.ini under the printer
setup (oh btw it's a postscript printer) and the line was something like :
ROTATE270LANDSCAPE = YES
or landscape270 = yes
or EPSFILE270Landscape = yes 
or SOMETHING like that, and now it doesn't work, I have no idea how I wiped 
it out, I've been searching my harddrive for fragments of text that might
contain the word landscape, to no avail.
Please, does anybody know were I can find out? is there an official
list of ALL POSSIBLE win.ini inclusions where I could find this?
Aldus won't help, they want mucho money for a tech support call which
infuriates me even further but I won't go into that here.
I'd appreciate any leads I can get - thanks!
