[bug-enscript] number of lines in 2-up mode

Hello,

I am using enscript-1.6.5.90 on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS.  I am using Courier 9pt font 
and trying to do 2-up printing.  In 1-up mode I can control the number of lines 
and the placement of the page with the -L and --margins=left:right:top:bottom 
commands respectively.  However, in 2-up mode it switches to landscape and I 
get a very large top margin and I cannot place the page using the margins.  
Instead, the number of lines changes, the left and lower margins are somewhat 
controllable and the top margin becomes several inches wide.

Is this a known bug in the code, the man pages, or am I doing something wrong?  
 My test cases:

1. In 1-up mode:

$ enscript -B -C -fCourier9 -n1 -pov5640_mipi.ps -T4 -v --lines-per-page=80 
--margins=10:10:10:10  ov5640_mipi.c
 
I get 76 lines/page and less if I use wider top and bottom margins.  This is 
fine.

2. In 2-up mode:

$ enscript -B -C -fCourier9 -n1 -pov5640_mipi.ps -T4 -v --lines-per-page=80 
--margins=10:10:10:10 -U2 ov5640_mipi.c

I still get only 76 lines/page although there is lots of room at the top for 
the full 80 lines/page and I cannot control top-margin width.

Regards,

Peter
