Hi all,

I've come to use okular's "Multiple pages per sheet" printing option for the 
first time today, and it didn't work as I expected. For example, when choosing 
"2x2" (two rows, two colums = 4 pages per sheet) and "Left to Right, Top to 
Bottom", the output in fact was "Top to Bottom, Right to Left". In figures:

What I expected:

1 2

3 4

What I got:

3 1

4 2

Furthermore, when choosing "2x1" (two rows, one column = 2 pages per sheet) and 
Portrait mode, I got my output in Landscape orientation. That means:

What I expected:

1

2

What I got:

1 2

Is this the intended behavior, and it's just counter-intuitive? Or am I even 
the only one who thinks this naming of the options is odd? Or is this a bug, 
and the meaning of the options got scrambled internally?

I'm using okular 1.8.1 on Arch Linux. I checked the options by printing to 
"cups-pdf", but the behavior was independent from the printer I chose (e.g. 
same results on my physical printer).

Thanks for any clarification (and keep up the great work, okular is my 
favourite PDF reader!),

Lukas
