As odd as it is, grad. schools want rotated page numbers with landscape tables. I searched this site and many others. The one that worked for me is Leo Liu's from this site. Here it is (I have a long preamble, this is the end):

    \usepackage{tikz}
    \usepackage{tabularx}
    \usetikzlibrary{shapes,arrows,backgrounds,decorations.pathmorphing,decorations.pathreplacing}
    \usepackage{longtable}

    \usepackage{fancyhdr}
    \fancypagestyle{lscapedplain}{%
      \fancyhf{}
       \fancyfoot{%
       \tikz[remember picture,overlay]
        \node[outer sep=1cm,above,rotate=90] at (current page.east) {\thepage};}
        \renewcommand{\headrulewidth}{0pt}
  }

 \begin{document}

  \begin{landscape}
  \thispagestyle{lscapedplain}
  \pagestyle{lscapedplain}
  \begin{table}[htb!] 
   %%%
   \end{table}
   \end{landscape}
   \pagestyle{plain}

This gives me a rotated page with rotated page number. But my page number is bold, looks different from the others. Plus I want to be able to play with its placement if possible. I'd appreciate any and all answers. Than you.

    Perhaps this will help, maybe even a duplicate: http://tex.stackexchange.com/questions/258595/rotate-landscape-for-single-page-and-also-the-pagenumber – Steven B. Segletes Jun 03 '16 at 20:09
  • That is a beautiful solution. Unfortunately, it doesn't work for me. I am not sure why, but it keeps giving an error with your code. As I said, I have many packages, probably there is a clash or something. Right now I have something that works. I was hoping to find a way to improve it. Thanks so much. – Burcu UMan Jun 03 '16 at 20:41

    It's not boldface, it's just been repeated three times You should use \fancyfoot[C]{...} instead. – John Kormylo Jun 03 '16 at 22:30

    I'm voting to close this question as off-topic because the issue could be solved in comments –  Mar 18 '17 at 12:06
