Use legal size paper for 1 page in middle of document

Post by jibberalan »

Hi,

Is it possible to insert one legal-sized (or other size) page in a document. I have a table that is especially long that I would like to do this for. For example:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt,twoside]{article}
\usepackage{pdflscape}
\begin{document}
Body text...
\begin{landscape}
% Change the paper size to legal here
Extra long table here...
\end{landscape}
% Go back to regular paper
Finish body text here
\end{document}

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

It is probably the best way to create separate documents for those different pages and include their PDF output into your document using pdfpages.
