How to use different page orientations inside one document

Page orientation defines the direction for printing or displaying the document in Word. Sometimes the page orientation for a particular page has to be different from the rest of the material. E.g., usually, the whole article, paper, or report is printed in the Portrait mode, but for a page with the big table, it is more convenient to use the Landscape mode.

To change the page orientation, follow these steps:

1. Select pages or paragraphs on pages that you want to switch to Portrait or Landscape orientation.

2. On the Layout tab, in the Page Setup group, click Margins:

3. Click Custom Margins. at the bottom of the list.

4. In the Page Setup dialog box, on the Margins tab, choose Portrait or Landscape orientation.

5. In the Apply to list, choose Selected text:

6. Click OK.

Microsoft Word automatically inserts section breaks before and after the text that has the new page orientation. If you write a book or a long report and your document is already divided into sections, you can click in the section (or select multiple sections), and then change the orientation only for the sections that you have chosen.

How to change orientation of one page in Word

Page orientation defines the direction for printing or displaying the document in Word, but one does not have to be the same for the entire document. Usually, the whole article, paper, or report is printed in the Portrait mode, but for a page with the big table, it is more convenient to use the Landscape mode. On the Layout tab in the Page Setup group, you can easily change the page orientation both for the entire document and for a single page. Microsoft Word inserts sections breaks before and after the selected page, and you can add more pages to this section later.
