PDF prints only part of a landscape table

Hi There:

I have tables earmarked to "print" in landscape. It does, but it's only printing one page of the table (it should span multiple pages). Do I need to add another command for this? (PDF output)
It has also put the title and description on a non-landscape page (I assume because the table was tagged, not the topic). Can I tag the topic to have it print as landscape?

Hello Stacey,

If you are using the DITA Map PDF - based on HTML5 & CSS scenario, the table should span on multiple landscape pages.

You're right, the title and description are displayed on a portrait page because only the table is tagged, not the topic.
If you want to rotate the whole topic, follow the second part (with "If you want to rotate the entire topic that contains the big table, ...") of the How to Handle Wide Tables - Page Rotation topic.

Regards,
Julien
