Is there a method to display only some figures and tables (including their captions) in landscape mode, while the rest of the Latex document in portrait mode? If this is too difficult, I'll also settle for just displaying their captions in landscape mode. I am also allowing the figures and tables to be displayed on separate pages. I'd appreciate if you could share your experience and suggestions. Danny Kilis INTERNET: kilis@umn-cs.cs.umn.edu CSNET: kilis@umn-cs.CSNET USENET: ....!umn-cs!kilis BITNET: danny@umnhcs

when you say `display', do you mean `print'? If the latter, and if you
have a PostScript printer, then it is moderately easy. It depends
which dvi to PostScript program you use. I have a style file which does
different things depending on the value of a counter \driver@setup,
but the only ones I know about are dvi2ps, dvips and dvitops. in my
parlance, the syntax would be
\begin{figure}
\begin{sideways}
foo
\caption{}
\end{sideways}
\end{figure}
but there is a many a slip 'twixt cup and lip, and it only works if
you were born an Acquarius (as I find out from people to whom I send
it for whom it does not sit up and beg). but the concept is easy.
I am also allowing the figures and tables to be displayed on
separate pages. I'd appreciate if you could share your experience
this is an ordinary feature: \begin{figure}[p]
