The print window exported every page in one orientation, landscape
unless changed, so a portrait folio was shrunk onto a landscape page.
With "Fit in page" on, a PDF export now turns each page to portrait or
landscape as its folio is drawn. The preview keeps one orientation
(QPrintPreviewWidget lays out every page at one paper size), and a
printer keeps it too (only Qt's PDF engine accepts a new page layout
once printing has started). The orientation chosen in the window is
put back afterwards, so it is still the one saved.
The cross-reference links took their target from painter->viewport(),
which QPainter sets once when it opens, so on a turned page they missed
their text. They now use the device's size, as render() does.
tst_printpdforientation exports through the window: an A3 landscape and
an A3 portrait folio get one page each way; tiled pages keep the chosen
orientation; and the links on examples/industrial.qet's turned pages
land where they do when the export starts portrait.

- Save and restore the state of m_component_info_cb, m_fit_in_page_cb,
and m_use_full_page_cb via QSettings, in addition to the existing
ExportProperties-based checkboxes (border, titleblock, terminals, etc.)
- Add savePrintProperties() to persist all checkbox states after
print/export under the "print/default" settings prefix
- Remove unused QPrinter(HighResolution) local variable in launchDialog()
that caused an unnecessary ~2s CUPS round-trip on Linux
directly to the related component on its folio, framing the target element.
When a project is exported to PDF, every cross-reference becomes an internal
link. Four kinds are covered:
- **Master → contact**: the contact list on a coil/relay (`CrossRefItem`)
- **Folio report → report**: report element labels (`DynamicElementTextItem`)
- **Slave → master**: the `(folio-position)` reference shown on a slave
(both standalone `DynamicElementTextItem` and grouped `ElementTextItemGroup`)
Clicking a link navigates **inside** the open document (no new viewer
instance) and zooms to frame the target element.
1. **Injection** (`printDiagram`, only when the paint engine is a `QPdfEngine`):
link rectangles are added with `QPdfEngine::drawHyperlink()`. The scene→page
mapping is rebuilt to match exactly what `QGraphicsScene::render()` does
(top-left anchored, `KeepAspectRatio`, **no centering**), and rectangles are
passed in device pixels — `pageMatrix()` already applies the 72/resolution
scale and Y-flip internally.
2. Each link URL encodes the target page and the target element's rectangle, in
PDF points on its own page: `#page=N&fitr=L_B_R_T`.
3. **Post-processing** (`pdfConvertUriToGoTo`, run after the painter is closed):
the `/S /URI` annotations are rewritten to native `/S /GoTo` actions with a
`/D [pageObj 0 R /FitR L B R T]` destination, and the xref table is rebuilt.
Pages are enumerated from the `/Pages /Kids` tree (reliable), not by scanning
for `/Type /Page` in raw bytes.
- `sources/print/projectprintwindow.{cpp,h}` — injection + post-processing
- `sources/qetgraphicsitem/crossrefitem.{cpp,h}` — `hoveredContactsMap()` accessor; store text rect for hit area
- `sources/qetgraphicsitem/dynamicelementtextitem.h` — `slaveXrefItem()` / `masterElement()` accessors
- `sources/qetgraphicsitem/elementtextitemgroup.h` — `slaveXrefItem()` accessor
- `qelectrotech.pro`, `cmake/qet_compilation_vars.cmake` — enable Qt gui-private headers (`<private/qpdf_p.h>`)
- **Fit-to-page mode only.** Links are not injected in tiled mode (multiple
pages per folio), which would require a per-tile transform.
- Uses Qt private API (`QPdfEngine::drawHyperlink`), stable since Qt 4 but not
part of the public API; the build links against `gui-private`.
- Page-tree enumeration assumes the flat `/Kids` array Qt produces (no nested
page trees).
- The frame zoom is controlled by two constants in `destRectPdf` (`pad`,
`minSide`) and can be tuned.
- Tested on Qt5; the `/Kids` parsing and `pageMatrix` behaviour are identical on
Qt6.
