I haven't confirmed this (no time) but I think u have to do this instead:
// step 3: we open the document
document.open();
document.setPageSize(PageSize.A4.rotate());
// step 4: we add some content
document.add(new Paragraph("To create a document in
landscape format, just make the height smaller than the width. For
instance by rotating the PageSize Rectangle: PageSize.A4.rotate()"));
document.newPage();
document.setPageSize(PageSize.A4);
document.add(new Paragraph("This is portrait again"));
hope this helped
regards Gustaf
