Author Print Layout problems

Using PSP 9.01 (9.0.1.1) with Win XP SP2
I create a Print Layout, typically using a 17" x 26" landscape page
and about 16 - 20 images which are about 4 x 6 or a bit larger - most
of these are landscape but a few are portrait. It works fine in the
session in which I create it. I print, then save layout with images.

Later, in another session, I open Print Layout and use Print Setup to
set paper type, size & orientation etc. Then I open my saved User
layout. The images and the whole layout are now rotated 90'CCW, and
shifted, like so:

LLLLLLLLLLayout
L L
L L
L L
L L
PL LPPPPPPPPage
PL L P
PLLLLLLLLLL P
P P
P P
PPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

Thinking that if the page were in Portrait mode, the images might all
fit on it, I go to Print Setup and change orientation to Portrait. Now
the images that were off the page are gone, the few that remain are
now not rotated on the screen (but would be if printed and the
Portrait page rotated back to Landscape).

I think this happened on earlier versions also. Am I doing something
wrong?

The only workaround I've found is to recreate a Layout in each print
session, but it's difficult to remember exactly waht the layout was
unless I keep a printed copy.
