Two solutions come to mind:
1. Choose a landscape template as shown on the right here:
2. Set your paper to landscape as described in Pages' help:
Setting the Paper Size and Orientation
Before you print, you should make sure the paper size and orientation are set the way you want by opening the Page Setup dialog.
To set paper size and orientation:
- Choose File > Page Setup.
- In the Page Setup dialog, choose the printer you will use from the “Format for” pop-up menu.
- Choose a standard paper size from the Paper Size pop-up menu.If you want to set a custom paper size, choose Manage Custom Sizes from the pop-up menu. Otherwise, go to step 7.
- Click the Add ➕ button, and then enter values in the Page Size fields.Either choose your printer’s default margins from the pop-up menu, or enter your own values for margins in the Left, Right, Top, and Bottom fields.If you want to change the custom size’s name, double-click the name in the list and enter a new name.
- Click OK.
- Choose the new paper size you named from the Paper Size pop-up menu, and then click OK.
- Select an orientation option using one of the buttons at the bottom of the Page Setup dialog.
- To make an image larger or smaller to fill more or less of the paper, type a percentage value into the Scale field, and then click OK.A value less than 100% makes the image smaller; a value greater than 100% makes the image larger.
