No, flag that you test with PrGeneral tells you that the user has selected
landscape printing in the Page Setup dialog.  The printer driver will do the
rotation, all you have to do is format your document's content according to
the rotated page rectangle that you will find in the print record.

Nothing is new here except the ability to see a flag that tells you specif-
ically that the user has selected landscape format.
