I needed to generate a landscape PDF from Asciidoc and was unable
to do so using dblatex (which is the only way I have to make PDF from
Asciidoc, the fop pathway does not work on my system).
Is there any way at present to generate landscape PDFs from Asciidoc
using dblatex, or there is no way right now?
I tried adding
--xsltproc-opts="--stringparam page.orientation landscape" to my
a2x commandline but it didn't seem to do anything. I didn't get an error,
but my document had portrait orientation.
I also tried
--dblatex-opts "-P latex.class.options=landscape"
again, no effect.
I'm guessing there is some low-level setting somewhere that overrides these
switches...
Just curious if anyone on here has run into this and figured it out already
since
Lex's post last year.
Best,
Aleksey
