How to insert a landscape page in Word, between portrait pages

3. Select the Layout tab. Under the Breaks drop down menu, select Next Page.

4. Your portrait page will now have a Section Break next page on it.

5. Scroll down to the next page. Insert another Section Break Next page.

6. Place your cursor in a paragraph between the 2 section breaks.

7. Select the Layout tab, Orientation drop down & select Landscape.

8. Your headers and footers will be linked.

9. If you need a different header and footer on the Landscape Page, you need to unlink the headers in the 3 sections.

10. Double click on the header in the Landscape Page to open the Header / Footer view.

11. On the Header & Footers, Design tab click “Link to Previous” so that it is no longer set.

12. Go to the footer and do the same.
