With sheet media, the drawing is rotated, but the page orientation specified in your software is retained. (You should always load sheet media in the same orientation as you have specified in the software.)

The Rotate Feature and Clipped Plots

With either roll or sheet media, if you rotate to landscape a plot whose original orientation was portrait, it is possible that the media is not wide enough for the drawing, and so it may be clipped. For example, rotating by 90
a portrait D/A1±size plot on D/A1-size media will probably result in a clipped plot.
