forrest hierarchical diagram that will fit in landscape mode for 8.5" by 11" document

Question

Is there a way to use the pictured hierarchical diagram and load it into latex so that it fits into landscape on a 8.5" by 11" document that won't affect header and footer/page number? somewhat new to latex still. I'm writing a document requiring a coding frame and it turns out that mine is hierarchical. But it is only part of an 8.5'' by 11''paper, and the hierarchical diagram above is clipped. Any ideas? enter image description here

One way but you will have to adapt it for your class, headers, footers and page layout.

Modified code for tree. Save as forest-hierarchical3.tex.

\documentclass[border=5pt,tikz]{standalone}

\usepackage{forest}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta, shapes.geometric, calc, shadows}

\begin{document}
\colorlet{mygreen}{green!75!black}
\colorlet{col1in}{red!30}
\colorlet{col1out}{red!40}

\colorlet{col3out}{blue!40}
\colorlet{col4in}{mygreen!20}
\colorlet{col4out}{mygreen!30}

\colorlet{col6out}{blue!30}
\colorlet{col7out}{orange}
\colorlet{col7in}{orange!50}
\colorlet{col8out}{orange!40}
\colorlet{col8in}{orange!20}
\colorlet{linecol}{blue!60}
\pgfkeys{/forest,

\begin{forest}

        },

    \draw (sse2.south) -- (us.north -| sse2.south);
    \draw (sse3.south) -- (us.north -| sse3.south);
    \coordinate (c1) at ($(sse1.south)!2/5!(sse2.south)$);
    \coordinate (c2) at ($(sse3.south)!2/5!(sse4.south)$);

    \draw (sse4.south) -- +(0,-10pt) -| (us.north -| c2);
  \end{scope}
\end{forest}
\end{document}

Then you can use something like this:

\documentclass[letterpaper]{article}
\usepackage[x11names,rgb]{xcolor}
\usepackage[vscale=.75]{geometry}
\usepackage{standalone}
\usepackage{rotating}
\usepackage{forest}
\usetikzlibrary{arrows.meta, shapes.geometric, calc, shadows}
\usepackage{fancyhdr}
\fancyhf[lh,ch,rh,lf,rf,cf]{Header/Footer}
\pagestyle{fancy}

\begin{document}
  \begin{sidewaysfigure}
    \centering
    \input{forest-hierarchical3}
  \end{sidewaysfigure}
\end{document}

to create the following:
