[Bug 1374505] [NEW] "auto-rotate and center" option ignored

 

Public bug reported:

Open any PDF file with page size smaller than A4 in evince (an example is attached).
Go to File -> Print.
Select a printer, or select Print to File and set output format to PostScript.
Go to Page Handling and check that Shrink to Printable Area is selected and Auto-Rotate and Center is ticked.
Click Print.
If you used Print to File, print the PostScript file with lpr.

What I expected to happen:
The printout to be centered.

What happened instead:
The printout was in the top left corner of each page.

Release of Ubuntu:
Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS

Version of evince:
3.10.3-0ubuntu10.1
