I would imagine that the margins you're trying to mirror become the wrong
ones on landscape pages. Assuming you are trying to create a gutter on the
inside (left side of recto pages, right side of verso), then in landscape
you need a larger margin at the top of the recto pages and bottom of verso.
This can be done.
Check the box for "Different odd and even" if you haven't already. This is a
per-document setting (rather than per-section like "Different first page"),
so you'll need to create separate odd and even headers and footers for all
the sections in the document. For the landscape sections, add space above
the header on recto pages and below the footer on verso pages, and this will
create your gutter.

Hi,
I am writing a large thesis and switch quite frequently between portrait
and
landscape layout due to tables etc. I need to have my inside margins set
at
3cm and my outside margins at 2cm but it doesn't seem to work for my
landscape orientation pages.... do I have to manually change the margins
on
these pages? Or is there a way to set it up so that Word automatically
realises that the next section still needs to have mirrored margins?
