<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Most of my output is in A4 portrait
mode, but I would like to be able to output some pages in landscape mode
and some pages on A3 landscape.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Using xsl from Arbortext Styler I can
produce landscape content (a rotated table or a rotated graphic and caption)
within a portrait page (as defined by the positon of the header and footer)
but the XEP produced pdf has two drawbacks:</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> i) if the content is longer than
one page the overflow material is lost, and</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">ii) the page is displayed in portrait
mode, so the table appears sideways (i.e. English text runs from bottom
to top) on the screen. Using Arbortext Composer to produce the pdf, the
pdf has additional pages to hold overflow and the page is shown in landscape
mode, making the content easier to view.</font>
<br>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">Is there any way of producing landscape
pages (or landscape within portrait, viewed onscreen as landscape) and
A3 landscape pages that revert back to A4 portrait at the end of the current
element? The requirement to issue overflow pages automatically is a 'nice-to-have'
that could be dropped, at a pinch. (In a way, what I want is a nested pageset
- but that is not allowed in xsl-fo).</font>
