Windows 10: PDF Print window defaults to Landscape

A few months ago this problem arose.


When I go to print a PDF file, the print window defaults to Landscape. Almost all my documents are in portrait view.


I cannot find any setting in the print window that lets me set the default setting to portrait.


This seems strange. It is a nuisance.


The normal Office 365 print windows perform normally.

Thanks for your help. I was browsing the web the other day and I found a page called FINAL DRAFT. They had a set of instructions for reinstalling the Microsoft Print to PDF utility that worked great for me. Problem solved.
