Question about Word

    I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but anyway.
    I'm doing my thesis and I need to insert a landscape map (which source information at the bottom) into the middle of one of the chapters (as a separate page) but the chapters are all Portrait.
    When I try inserting it it changes to portrait, I have checked the "change page layout" but the only options seem to be to change the entire chapter to landscape or to change that page onwards to landscape, I just one the one landscape page among the portraits or a way of turning the landscape page to portrait with out losing the information on the sides and with having the source information sideways.
    I hope that is clear to someone.

    Yo,

    Can you not insert the image onto the page, and then rotate the image so that it is in landscape?

    Same difference, as the printed media will all have to be in the same plain anyway.

    The image is long and thin so I was hoping to have the writing underneath the image as opposed to the bottom of the page where it wouldn't really fit so I would be looking to be able to make the writing go horizontally on that page but letter beside letter like this as opposed to
    t
    h
    i
    s

    Thanks

    if you 'insert' a section break, then change the page layout to landscape on
    that page (section) and then 'insert' another section break, and reformat to potrait after the section break.

    If you want the headers and footers to be different you have to break the connection between sections. If you look under the help files will give you a better summary.

    I have attached this type of formatting below, view the section breaks under print layout or normal to see what I mean.

    That has done it, thank you.
