Just some thoughts in my uncaffeinated brain as I read this thread for
the first time...

Horizontal vs. vertical?
Wide vs. narrow?
1-up vs. N-up?
Long-edge vs. short-edge?

The 1-up vs. N-up is, to me, the most "accurate" as it somewhat
describes a screen like paper and indicates fit N pages on a sheet --
or in this case, screen -- before moving on to the next sheet /
screen. (Not quite a parallel to paper, as 4-up would not be

1 2 3 4

but rather

1 2
3 4

Long- vs. short- is, I think, well-understood by anyone doing duplex
printing as to which way the pages flip. Again, not exactly completely
analogous to paper, but easy to grasp the concept IF you print
duplex...
