It appears that there were 2 versions of the instructions with different cover
page orientations - 1 landscape and 1 portrait.
Perhaps this has happened a lot. First time I've noticed it.
See image.
How is this addressed in the Bricklink inventory catalog - or should it be?

Interesting find. I have the "landscape" print version and can confirm that
the opposite side is not the "portrait" print side you've shown.

I didn't take a picture but the back side is similarly rotated differently
for each version

I encounter this occasionally, I just make a note in the description. I do think
however that images and notes should be added to the catalog.

I've also seen pictures of "instructions" that are likely just images of
the box art (shape is wrong etc)
