The LaTeX Package lscapeenhanced#

The Package lscapeenhanced has started as hack module of the former KOMA-Script package scrhack years ago to fix an issue when using package lscape with KOMA-Script packages scrlayer or scrlayer-scrpage. This became necessary because package lscape has a somehow strange handling of \textheight resp. \textwidth at landscape pages. This is not only an issue with KOMA-Script but also other packages, e.g., showframe. Package lscapeenhanced solves this issue. This is a really small change and best would be, if the lscape author would at least include this change optionally. The user interface of lscape remains usable unchanged.

Additionally lscapeenhanced provides an option to not only load package lscape but pdflscape. So if you want the functionality of pdflscape you don’t need to load lscapeenhanced and pdflscape but only lscapeenhanced with option pdflscape.

The package is part of the “Third Party Enhancements” hosted on GitHub. Further information can be found in the CTAN catalog entry.
