Changing Print Attributes in Keynote 10.1

I frequently use Keynote in portrait mode. I was able to create a custom "Portrait" theme to create the slides, but when I print them they come out in Landscape orientation.


In the print window I can go:

Presets -> Show Presets -> Page Attributes and it shows me that "Current -> Orientation" is Landscape, but nothing in the list is editable. Is there an obvious way to edit any of the page attributes displayed?


Am I the only person who uses portrait mode with presentation software, or has Apple's usability really degraded below that of Microsoft Office and Libre Office to the point they do not have a simple switch between landscape and portrait orientations both for creating the slides and printing them?

Selected "Show Details" and got this:



Then selected the non-intuitive drop-down named "Keynote" where one of the choices was "Page Attributes."

That gave me:


Where there was an option to change the Orientation.
