How to Make a Landscape Page in LaTeX
The fix
To rotate a single page to landscape in LaTeX, load \usepackage{pdflscape} and wrap the wide content (a big table or figure) in the landscape environment. pdflscape both rotates the content and turns the page sideways in the PDF viewer, so it is readable on screen.
Example
\usepackage{pdflscape}
% ...
\begin{landscape}
\begin{table}
% a very wide table
\end{table}
\end{landscape}Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between lscape and pdflscape?
Both rotate the content; pdflscape additionally rotates the page in the PDF so the viewer shows it sideways. Prefer pdflscape for on-screen reading.
How do I make the whole document landscape?
Pass the landscape option to geometry: \usepackage[landscape]{geometry}, or set \documentclass[landscape]{article}.
