Open printing to PDF bug?

I set parameters for the entire print batch before "open printing to  
pdf".  Am I doing that wrong?

Try setting up for A4:
    set the printPaperSize to "595,842"

Try printPaperOrientation instead of printRotated.

If those don't work, try putting margins and printscale before the  
batch.

I'm guessing.  Mine works but I'm not using landscape.  And I use  
full-page printing.
