Never mind, apparently this isn't possible. What i'm looking for is a full
page floating figure which is supposedly not available in any version of
Word, only Latex. A workaround for non-full page is here

If it is possible, I would love to hear how. Thanks for any help.

Hi everyone, I'm trying to write my thesis in Word, and I'm having some
formatting problems. I have full page figures (in a drawing canvas) that I
need to be shown on the first page after they are referenced. Is there anyway
to tell Word that I need the next page to be my figure? I've experimented
with all of the text wrapping options, and the only one that works is inline,
or else the figure and caption don't respect the margins (which is very
important). However, this means if I add any text above the figure, I get a
mostly blank page with maybe 2 lines on it, and my figure on the page below
it. Adding a page or section break also give the same problems. I would like
the text below my figure to fill in the rest of that page. I know people
write their theses in word, so this must be possible, I just can't figure out
how.
