[OS X TeX] rotating vs landscape in two-sided documents

[Chabot Denis]

Update.

If one desires to use sidewaysfigure, I found a way to have the same  
orientation in two-sided documents:

from http://tex.loria.fr/graph-pack/epslatex.pdf

The default orientation of the figures produced by sidewaysfigure  
depends on
whether the document is processed with the oneside or twoside  
documentclass option
   When the oneside option is chosen, the bottom of graphic is  
towards the right
edge of the portrait page.
   When the twoside option is chosen, the bottom of graphic is  
towards the outside
edge of the portrait page.
This default behavior can be overridden by options to the \usepackage 
{rotating}
command.
\usepackage[figuresleft]{rotating}
causes the bottom of the sidewaysfigure graphics to be towards the  
left edge of the
portrait page (regardless of oneside or twoside options). Similarly,
\usepackage[figuresright]{rotating}
causes the bottom of the sidewaysfigure graphics to be towards the  
right edge of the
portrait page.
