Hi folks, I hope you all had a great eastern and that you are ready for some cool Tips and Tricks this week! I’ve planned some pretty awesome tricks but we are starting today with a Word Tip and Trick.

 

Today’s tutorial is about changing or turning the pages in Microsoft Word. You can change all the pages at once but also one in a sequence.

 

To change the orientation to portrait or landscape for the entire document you’ll need to follow the next steps.

 

·         Go to the tab Page Layout

·         Click on Orientation

·         And choose Portrait or Landscape

I’m now changing the page lay-out of one single in-between page.

 

·         First you’ll need to select the text on the page which lay-out you want to change

·         Then go to the tab Page Layout

·         Then select Margins

·         And select Custom Margins

·         Now on the Margins tab select Landscape

·         And change the Apply to value to Selected text

·         Click OK and you’re done.

    I tried this, with a table on the turned page. The table gets truncated at the width of the portrait pages. When printing the document, all is fine.

    Also the numbering of the pages seems to be corrupt (the turned page starts again with 1).

    Is there a fix to this behavior? (I’m using Word 2003)

    TIA

    I tried this and it just does not work on Word 2007. It changes all pages to landscape not the one page i want.

    This worked for me when I turned the page containing a wide table from portrait to landscape in Word 2007.

    Thanks for the tips. I've tried it and it works. But, I have found another way of doing this if some of you can't do this tips. What you're going to do is position your cursor right where you want to start change the page orientation. Then, choose breaks –> section break –> next page (or continuous, depends on your cursor location). After that, you will have a new section. In the new section, position your cursor there and in Orientation, change it into what you want. Cheers! ^^
