1) Conductor is on a horizontal page
2) Create parts for each instrument
3) Parts are on vertical pages
4) Export parts (File -> Export parts)
5) Save as .pdf

All the pages in the pdf are horizontal. Conductor is well printed, but parts are printed vertically on horizontal pages.

To be clear: this issue does not concern the PDF export of individual parts.

But it does concern specifically the "main score + parts file"

In this case, in this specific file again, parts display the format of the main score.

E.g.: A3 (main score) vs. A4 (parts).
Result: Everything is displayed in A3 (in "main score + parts" file)

Or: "Landscape (main score) vs. "Portrait" (parts).
Résult: all Landscape in the " main score + Parts " file.

This issue goes back a long time. After a quick overview, I do not see it working as expected, if only throughout 2018.

I'm guessing it goes back to 2017, with this commit:

https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/commit/bc7b85e37d8754ba4c68ac2a9…

to fix #177961: PDF export: landscape truncated

Or not, actually I wouldn't be surprised to find it was a problem further back as well. But this commit was a good clue for me at least :-)

I was just looking at this code today and ran across this while checking to see if there were related issues, so I'll see about fixing this too.
