I'm asking this looking for the ultimate
answer. What are the main differences between the three of them? When should I use anyone in particular?
I know there is this question: Should I prefer {pdflscape} over [pdftex]{lscape}?, but it doesn't address the issue with the rotating
package.
Also, there is this question: Rotating text by -90 degrees , but once gain: no reference about the rotating
package.
Furthermore, I'm trying to get a figure (packages: graphicx
, float
, subcaption
), and later on a Gantt diagram (packages: tikz
, pgfgantt
) on landscape layout.
Which one of the three should I use? What are the advantages of one over the other? (I have already gone through this question: Rotate Gantt Chart Figure, but the only answer is with lscape
).
UPDATE: I ran some tests and it seems that when using a longtable
environment pdflscape
modifies all the pages along the table, whereas [pdftex]{lscape}
only modifies the last one.
Code:
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage{array}
\usepackage{longtable}
\usepackage{pdflscape}
%\usepackage[pdftex]{lscape} % Uncomment if you want to see the output with [pdftex]{lscape}
