The following information is dated and not recommended
for LaTeX2e.
Owing to some changes in the new font selection scheme in the latest version (version 3.14) of TeX and LaTeX, the command \bf no longer produces boldface in math mode. You can use \boldmath, but this (unlike what the LaTeX manual says) makes subscripts bold as well. The new way to have bold letters with non-bold subscripts is with the new command \boldsymbol. This does what \boldmath previously did. But you need to include the amsbsy style option in \documentstyle (see example below). The biggest problem this change makes is for users who use more than one implementation of TeX and LaTeX. For example, if you regularly, download/upload LaTeX source files to your PC or Mac and if the version on the latter does not use the new font selection scheme (I am not aware of any microcomputer implementation that uses the new scheme), then your file won't LaTeX on it. Following is a sample LaTeX file to demonstrate the capabilities. LaTeX and preview it to see what I mean.
\begin{document}
This is ordinary X and boldface \verb+\bf X+: {\bf X}.
This is ordinary math mode \verb+$X_{i}$+ and
\verb+$\theta_{j}$+: $X_{i}, \theta_{j}$.
This is \verb+$\boldsymbol{X_{i}, \theta_{j}}$+:
$\boldsymbol{X_{i}, \theta_{j}}$.
This is \verb+$\boldsymbol{X}_{i}$+ and
\verb+$\boldsymbol{\theta}_{j}$+: $\boldsymbol{X}_{i},
\boldsymbol{\theta}_{j}$.
This is \verb+{\boldmath $X_{i}, \theta_{j}$}+:
{\boldmath $X_{i}, \theta_{j}$}.
This is \verb+{\bf $X_{i}, \theta_{j}$}+:
{\bf $X_{i}, \theta_{j}$}.
\end{document}
Here's another way to get bolface symbols in math mode without making
subscripts and superscripts bold as well. The trick is to use the
\boldmath command (which makes everything bold in TeX 3.14) but via a
"newcommand" definition (called \bm in the example below; see pp.
55-56 of the LaTeX manual).
The following test file shows what I mean. Now you won't need to
worry about the amsbsy style and new fonts. Everything will work the
same whatever version of LaTeX you use. (By the way, \bm{} is even
shorter to type than \boldsymbol{}).
\documentstyle{article}
\begin{document}
\newcommand{\bm}[1]{\mbox{\boldmath{$#1$}}}
This is boldmath with the newcommand \verb+$\bm{X}_{i},
\bm{\theta}_{j}$+: $\bm{X}_{i}, \bm{\theta}_{j}$.

Subject: landscape orientation in LaTeX
The way that I produced the landscape table was to create the little
style file that is stored in /Users/bates/tex/landscape.sty and use
it
along with the -t landscape option to dvips. The landscape.sty just
redefines the page width and height so they are suitable for the
rotated page. The file will look like
\documentstyle[landscape]{article}
\begin{document}
...
\end{document}
and you use
dvips -t landscape table.dvi
to print it (assuming table.tex is the name of the LaTeX file).
There should be a way of including rotate.tex and using \rotr or
\rotl
to rotate part or a page but I haven't been able to get that to work.
