Use portrait and landscape pages in the same doc

In order to change page orientation from portrait to landscape in the same Word 2010 document, section break must be inserted at the end of the text on the page that precedes the page with the modified orientation.

For example in document with four pages we would like that pages 1 and 2 will be in portrait orientation and pages 3 and 4 will be in landscape orientation, section break must be inserted at the end of the text on page 2.

Do the following:
1. Click once at the end of the text on page 2 to place there the courser.

2. Click the Page Layout TAB then click the Breaks icon.
   

    These options will be displayed



3. Click the Next Page under the Section Breaks options

 
    After this, the courser should be placed on page 3 of the document.

 
4. Click the Orientation icon on the Page Layout TAB
    The Portrait and Landscape options will be displayed.


 
5. Click the Landscape option.
    This will change the orientation of page 3 and all subsequent pages, to Landscape.
