    Hello,

    I created mPDF in the landscape modus and I want to add a page with portrait orientation, but when I use $mpdf->addPage('p'); nothing happen.
    All following pages are in landscape.

    Can anyone help me?

    Some of the options in mPDF are to allow backward compatibility, and some are just remnants of the original FPDF which haven't been removed.

    To set Landscape so that mPDF knows it is landscape, either use the page format followed by '-L' e.g.
    $mpdf=new mPDF('','A4-L','','',15,15,20,20,5,5,'');
    [In this case, do not set the last parameter]

    Or set an array (width first) and the last parameter
    $mpdf=new mPDF('',array(210,297),'','',15,15,20,20,5,5,'L');

    Either of these should work when you use $mpdf->addPage('p');

    So it isn't possible to use different orientations on different pages?

    Yes it is possible to change using $mpdf->addPage('p'); etc.

    But you need to set the initial page format so that mPDF knows which orientation it is i.e. the 2 methods I have suggested above.

    I initial mPDF with $mpdf=new mPDF('','A4-L'...) but $mpdf->addPage('p'); doesn't work.

    As long as you haven't set the last parameter, it should work i.e. this won't work:
    $mpdf=new mPDF('','A4-L','','',15,15,20,20,5,5,'L');

    Make sure you are using latest version mPDF 4.6 or 5.0Beta.

    btw it should be mpdf->AddPage() i.e. note the uppercase, although PHP seems to allow this.

    I only use $mpdf=new mPDF('utf-8','A4-L');.

    I will try with Uppercase.

    EDIT:
    It seems to work.
