Hi Ted,
the whole thing goes through the TextMate compile command, but it
eventually calls pdflatex, and I believe the arguments passed at that
point are something like "-interaction=nonstopmode -file-line-error-
style". But as I said in my email, Skim shows the file in landscape
just fine. The problem is not with showing it, but with printing it.
When it tries to print it, *then* it loses the landscapeness.
