How do I apply landscape orientation to a PDF Export for a particular page section

Question

I have a Confluence Page that includes some wide tables. I want to apply landscape formatting for these when exporting to PDF.

I'm happy to to apply this formatting to the entire document section (underneath a h1 heading) for this, but I can't get either the size or orientation parameters in the css for PDF Stylesheet to apply.

What are my options?

Thanks @Matt Reiner _K15t_

I'd like to try and achieve this natively if possible.

Our need for exporting to PDF is very minimal, so it's difficult to justify using a paid app to achieve this goal.

Hi @James Crossman, I’m not familiar with a way to do this with the built in PDF exporter.

My team actually makes an app called Scroll PDF exporter which lets you do all sorts of customization and design work on your PDFs. It includes a macro you can use to designate the orientation of certain content, so when it exports, that content is landscape instead of portrait. Maybe try it out to see if it meets your needs.
