Hi maintainer,

We also experience this bug (exact same symptoms as Samuel) with evince
3.14.1-1 on jessie. All PDFs that I have tested fail to print when "Auto
Rotate & Center" is checked in the print settings.

I tested applying this patch from Samuel's bug report:
https://bug739723.bugzilla-attachments.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=290722

It applies cleanly. After rebuilding and installing the package locally,
the issue appears to be fixed, and printing seems to be working reliably
across our ~15 jessie workstations (which print many hundreds of PDFs).

Is there anything I could do to help get this bug patched? We'd be happy
to help with any additional testing.

Many thanks!
Chris
