I am using version Version 2.8 (58) and every time I preview the document in pdf or print the document the header and footer are inverted. I have also tried Composer Pro (Beta) and it is the same.
I checked the setting but could not see on that affects this. I am convinced I have an incorrect setting but am unclear how to change this situation.

If you send me more information (e.g. a screenshot of your settings), I
can take a look. But the header and footer always work properly for me
and no one else has mentioned this.

Here are the screenshots of my settings.

Perhaps I misunderstood. I thought you were claiming that the header was ending up at the bottom of the page?

Fletcher,
No the footer and header are reverse images of what the should be. The original PDF I sent you show the footer this way.

I’m still not following. “Reversed”? Everything looks correct to me.
What am I missing?
How is it supposed to look if what I’m seeing isn’t correct?

Fletcher,
Sorry to bother you. It seems to be a display issue when saving as a pdf but the final document is fine.
Apologies for the intrusion.
By the way, I love the app. I now write nearly everything in mmd.
Many thanks

I was starting to think I was going crazy.

No, I think I am the crazy one!

Fletcher,
Here is a screen shot of what I was seeing.
Maybe I need new glasses. This came up when I previewed as a pdf. It
still shows that but the final doc is ok.
Bizarre hey?

Strange.
Are you on El Capitan?
I was just able to reproduce this -- Print -- Preview --> upside
down/backwards. Print -> Save As PDF --> rightside up.
I think this is an OS X El Capitan problem -- never saw it on Mavericks
or other systems. Will try and dig further.
Now I understand you.
;)

I have been digging into this more. Can confirm it's issue with El Capitan. Others have reported it during beta versions (it was also in TextEdit). Now TextEdit works, but I can't fix it in my app. Have reached out to another developer I know who found the same problem to see if he was able to fix it, and how.
More to come...

Seems that when it is printed it comes out ok. Weird!

You mean if it's upside down on screen, when that same PDF is put on
paper, it's right side up?
#15 Posted by Mark.ft on 08 Dec, 2015 08:47 PM
No! Tested it and it printed upside down.
#16 Posted by Fletcher Support staff on 08 Dec, 2015 08:49 PM
Definitely strange...
#17 Posted by Mark.ft on 08 Dec, 2015 08:49 PM
If you save it to a pdf from within the print window it is the right way up.

Finally!!!
Keith Blount (Scrivener developer) responded. He had reported bug to Apple and they sent him the fix a while bag. It works for Composer as well. This will be in the next beta release.
Thanks for pointing this out!!
