How do I setup a correct switching? Thanks for advice! Willi ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

If you've got your text in a float type environment (such as \placetable), you can use the \rotate{} command. Here's a small example. This will literally insert a landscape page, without a header and without a footer. ---------- %output=pdf \starttext \input tufte \startTEXpage \rotate [height=210mm, width=297mm, rotation=90] {\placetable{My Caption}{ \bTABLE \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD aaa\eTD \bTD b\eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD \eTD \bTD aaa\eTD \bTD b\eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD 11\eTD \bTD 111\eTD \bTD 5555\eTD \eTR \bTR \bTD 22\eTD \bTD 221\eTD \bTD 6655\eTD \eTR \eTABLE}} \stopTEXpage \doincrementpagenumber \input tufte \stoptext ---------- This example will float the table to the centre of the page, if you'd like to anchor the float to the bottom of the page, you make have to get out the \frame{} toolkit. > How do I setup a correct switching [for this type of structure]? > \chapter{One} > > running tex A4 > > \chapter{Two} > > landscape table A4 > > \chapter{Three} > > running text A4 You want rotated chapter headings, headers and footers, etc., I've never done that. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 5+ messages in thread

This is the clue I needed.

Basically I think, that it could be a good idea, to have a heder beeing rotatet with the content of the page. Sofar one can include the \chapter[]{} in the \rotate[]{} command and it is nicely rotated with the rest of the page. I will try further.... Thanks for your example!
