Adding a header to a landscape page
I am formatting a document where all of the pages except one are portrait. I
have one page that is landscaped and I am also doing odd/even headers. On my landscape page, I need for my header to be portrait and on the right side. Can someone show me an easier way to do it than creating dummy pages? |

Unfortunately, Word does not have this feature (yet).
See this link: http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/MarginalText.htm You could also try inserting a text box in the landscape page's header, then change the text direction and add the information you want manually. Don't forget to uncheck Same as previous in the Header/footer toolbar on the following page to prevent your formatting from carrying over to the header after the landscape page.

Thanks for the help, but I still am not understanding this. Is there an easy
way to do this? I have no idea how to set this up without losing my headers throughout my whole document? I wish I could post the page here so that I could show you the layout!!

Take a look at this explanation of headers and footers and see if this makes
it clearer how they work and what steps you can take to work with the suggestions already provided. http://sbarnhill.mvps.org/WordFAQs/HeaderFooter.htm "mattie" wrote: Thanks for the help, but I still am not understanding this.

If the problem is that the changes are applying to the entire document,
sounds like you skipped step 9 (unlink the headers) or possibly steps 4 and 6. For steps 4 and 6, you need to make sure that you insert a Next Page *Section* Break, not a regular page break. In fact, checking in my MacWord 2004, I notice that following the exact steps could easily insert the wrong type of break. Not sure what version you are using, but Word has slightly adjusted some of the menus since the article was written.
