I have a 2 paged document and would like the first page to be in portrait, the second to be in landscape. Please could you assist?

RE: page layout of word

Hi Angela

Thank you for your question.

Click at the end of the text that will conclude page 1.

From the same Page Layout ribbon, click the small arrow in the lower right corner of the Page Setup group. This will open Page Setup.

On the Margins tab choose Landscape orientation

At the bottom of the page set the "Apply to" drop down to show "From this point forward" and choose OK

Word will insert a next page section break and change the orientation of your document to Landscape from that point.

Repeat the process later in your document, choosing Portrait orientation to set back to a portrait layout.

I hope this helps - do let me know if you have any further questions.

Kind regards,

Word tip:

Change the Print button so it brings up the Print dialogue box

If you want to bring up the Print dialogue box to check your print settings when you hit the Print button, do the following:

1. Right-click on the toolbar that displays the Print button.

2. Select Customise.

3. Click on the Print button on the toolbar to select it, then hold the left mouse button down and drag the button towards the screen below. The button should come off the toolbar.

4. In the Customise dialogue box on your screen, select the Commands tab.

5. Select File from the Categories list, and then locate the Print... icon (looks like the normal Print button, but the word Print has three dots following it).

6. Click on the Print... icon to select it, then use your left mouse to drag and drop the icon onto the toolbar at the top of the screen.

7. Close the Customise dialogue box.
