Confirmed

Page orientation is not respected in print preview dialog on macOS. Removed Monterey from title as this was reproduced on macOS 11.6.1.

Another observation to mention but should probably be its own bug: preview is empty. Might be related to Skia/Metal setting. Not sure.

Bug 147615 found this missing Page Attributes (Orientation, etc.) issue to be also present for LibreOffice Impress.

I just re-test per 'QA Team' instructions with the following findings:

1. Issue still exists. Writer and Impress in LibreOffice v24.2.2.2 are still missing Page Attributes (Orientation, etc.) in the Print Dialog.

2. Issue 'existed since OOo'. The missing Page Attributes section (Orientation, etc.) bug was also found to be present in the first version of LibreOffice 3.3.0 for both Impress and Writer.

I set version to 'inherited from OOo' based on the above findings and QA Team request via Bug 147615. Please see Bug 147615 for additional detail and screenshots.
