Looking for examples of good landscape oriented user manuals

[john.x.posada at us.hsbc.com]

Can you keep everything about your existing template except orientation?
Just change your mater page orientation landscape,  It might be easier to
get it through approval rather than creating a whole new templayt/style
structiure.

You might have to tweek any tyles that are based on absolute placement, but
I know speaking for myself, it would take all of an hour to reorirntate my
stuff.

I am working on a project to document a new machine that has a Windows 8.x
based user interface. All touch screen, swipe left-right...

Our current manuals have a pretty restrictive template in portrait
orientation; however, considering that the layout of all of the screens is
very horizontal, I'm thinking that a manual in landscape format (probably
spiral bound on the left when printed) might be a good way to present
instructions that would include lots of graphics and probably embedded
video (which I've done quite successfully in FM12).

Any ideas where I might find some good examples of user manuals done in
landscape, as well as supporting templates?
