Here is the situation: I need to insert a large table that will only fit nicely in one page if the page is in the landscape orientation. This creates breakage in my text narrative, because I have to break a section in the middle of a passage. It'd look visually more professional if the text right before the table is flush to the bottom margin of Page x-1, the table appears on page X, and the text picks up again on Page X+1. In order to do this, the whole page in landscape must "float", as a drawing or a frame would float if you anchor it to a certain position in the page.

If this is not possible, can you rotate a table 90 degrees, so that you don't have to start a new section just to create one landscape page? If I can rotate the table 90 degrees counterclockwise, I can frame the entire table and make that frame float.

Can you either (a) float a page of different orientation or (b) rotate a table?
