[reportlab-users] Changeing page orientation of canvas.

[Ian Sparks]

Hmm..I tried to do :

c =3D canvas.Canvas("hello.pdf",pagesize=3Dletter)

c.drawString(0.3*inch,0.3*inch,'Hello world')
c.showPage()

c.pageSize =3D 200,200 #Change that page size
c.drawString(0.3*inch,0.3*inch,'Hello world')
c.showPage()
c.save()

this runs but my second page is still letter size. What did I miss?

no, use the correct page size instead.

e.g. :=20

        pgsize =3D pagesizes.landscape(pagesizes.A4)

then use pgsize when creating your document or page
