According to Jon Bosak's 'DSSSL Online Application Profile': 'The simple-page-sequence flow object is intended for systems that wish to provide a very simple page layout facility. More complex page layouts can be obtained with the page-sequence' which is not part of DSSSL-o and therefore not included in Jade. I guess the landscape rotation of a page may be included in this page-sequence flow object. I could not read anything in either the table or the display-group flow objects. If this option is not supported in the RTF backend, it is not due to the backend itself but rather to the fact that such an option is not mandatory in the DSSSL standard and thus not required in DSSSL-o. Moreover, I'm not sure whether the RTF format accepts such an option at all. Could you do it in Word ? I've tried and only succeeded in having a new section formatted in landscape orientation. The problem is you end up with a page break and the whole page is in landscape, i.e. page headers and footers are landscaped too. May my intuition not be too wrong.
