Help with Landscape printing solution?

[Bill Burke]

I have created a "Certificate of Completion" in C# .net and have a typical
problem of not being able to print this in landscape mode without user
intervention. The certificate is a web user control as it gets information to
complete the certificate (userName, date, course) from the SQl database. 2
Questions:

1. Can I rotate the user control somehow 90 degress and place it in a hidden
frame? and print it in protrait mode?

2. Does anyone have an idea how to accomplish this?

Thanks..............

When you print, the PrintPage event provides a PageSettings object. You can
specify landscape printing there.

See the PageSettings class.
