Need to re-orientate pages with tables on them
Hi folkes, hope someone can help me here as I am really stumped.
I've been given a project (a community plan) to convert to pdf. The problem is that when the plan was created all the sections were created in seperate documents which was fine until I found a document full of landscape tables. The main document has to be portrait orientation so I need to change the orientation of the landscape pages but of course that will upset the tables. So Im asking if anyone knows of a way to change the orientation of the pages with the tables. Touch would I havnet confused anyone :0) Thanks for any help offered whether it works or not -- Gill |

Need to re-orientate pages with tables on them
Hi Gill,
Word allows yo to have a document in which some pages are in portrait layout and others are landscape. To do this, you simply insert Section breaks before & after each set of portrait & landscape pages, then format each Section as portrait or landscape as needed. If you don't do that, then for each table that is too wide to fit the portrait pages you'll need to either: .. transpose the table and rotate the text in all the cells in each table; or .. split the table so that it doesn't have more columns that will fit between the margins. -- Cheers macropod [MVP - Microsoft Word] "Gill" wrote in message ...
