You know what this reminds me of?

When I was trying to learn how to switch
the PRINTER between portrait and landscape
mode, I'd try a Landscape plot, it would come
out in Portrait. I'd try a portrait, it would
come out in Landscape. What the...!?

Finally, I realized that you can't change the
orientation of the printer at the same time
you try to change other printer settings. You
have to do it on a separate DEVICE, Landscape=1
line.

I wonder if color is the same thing?

Have to go play tennis. Just a thought.

Cheers,

David
