Isn't the page orientation used encoded in the pdf?

To change it, other than by shrinking the page down so it fits on the
paper in landscape orientation I think you would need to use a pdf
editor to reflow the content.

If you have a document or image that you are converting to a pdf then
if you format the document or image landscape then the exported pdf
will also be landscape.
