http://www.doc.ic.ac.uk/csg/faqs/latex.html (last question):

"The landscape document class option doesn't work?

\documentclass[,landscape]{article} is broken. There is an (impressive!)
conflict between papersize and landscape in the global documentclass
attribute settings which means they argue about textwidth, ultimately
resulting in [landscape] being *entirely* ignored!

The right way to do it is:

\documentclass[11pt,a4paper]{article}
\usepackage{landscape}
\def\printlandscape{\special{landscape}}
\special{! TeXDict begin /landplus90{true}store end }
\begin{document}
Content
\end{document}

The \def and \special lines fix landscape rendering in gv so you don't
have to flip to seascape -- part of one of my "defs" files by now, since
it proves very useful!

xdvi doesn't understand landscape, so don't try and view raw DVI in
there.

Also remember to run dvips as 'dvips -t landscape', otherwise you'll
just get a portrait A4 page with a landscape \textwidth."
