Re: how to print a page in landscape format

[Albert Kinderman]

@SysInclude {doc} includes doc.  doc contains the line
@Use address@hidden
...

You then repeat
@Use address@hidden
...

in your schema_pdf

Lout then correctly complains that you included @DocumentSetup twice.

The solution is to copy doc to my_landscape_doc in your own directory.  
Make the changes you want, and then replace

@SysInclude {doc}

with

@Include {my_landscape_doc}
