How can I make just one page of a Word document horizontal?

I'm using Microsoft Word 2010. How do I set only the last page of my document to be horizontal? All other pages have to remain vertical.

Solution 1:

Go to the last page you want to keep vertical (Portrait) then select Page Layout | Breaks | Next Page.

Now click anywhere in the page where you want to have the horizontal page (Landscape) and go to Page Layout | Orientation and select Landscape

Do the same steps for the following page, the one after the landscaped one, but this time choose Portrait. Only do this if you want to restore the Portrait orientation back to normal.

Solution 2:

You need to insert “Section Breaks” to do that. Then you can change the layout in each section without touching the other ones. There are multiple ways to archive this.

Go to the ribbon Page Layout, click on Break and insert a Section Break on the Next Page.

In the new section, you can change Layout, without affecting preceding pages. Afterwards, insert another Section Break, and change the Layout again for the succeeding pages.

If you are afraid of braking the layout of your existing document, first insert the section breaks before and after your designated landscape page than change it's layout.

Be warned, that section breaks can cause some strange behaviour to pagination, footers and headers. Sometimes it's easier to create the Landscape pages in a separate document and merge it after printing...
