The Ultimate Guide to Office 365 Normally, pages in a Word document have either a portrait or a landscape orientation. You might think that you can’t mix and match these two orientations in the same document, but you can indeed have both–here’s how. In a Microsoft Word document, place your cursor at the start of the page that you want to change to landscape. Select Layout Breaks Next Page to place a section break where you had your cursor.

Make sure your cursor is still at the start of that page, and go to the Orientation option. Select landscape, and you’ll notice how everything after our section break has changed to horizontal. All you have to do now is go to the next page, insert another break, change the orientation back to portrait, and there you have it! Note: The video tutorial demonstrates this lesson on a Mac, but the instructions are the same for PCs.
. Select the Page Layout tab. Click the Breaks drop-down menu in the Page Setup section. Select Next Page in the Section Breaks section. Repeat the above steps at the end of the area you want to rotate. Open the Page Setup details window by clicking the small arrow located in the lower right corner of the section.
Click the tab. In the Orientation section, select Portrait or Landscape. At the bottom of the window, in the Apply to: drop-down list, choose Selected Text.
