In MS Word, which of these is a valid page orientation?
Answer: C
Correct answer: Landscape
Word offers exactly two orientations: Portrait, taller than it is wide, and Landscape, wider than it is tall. Portrait is the default. Landscape is chosen for wide tables, charts and timelines that would not otherwise fit across the page. The practical point worth knowing is how to mix the two. Orientation is a section property, so a single landscape page inside a portrait document requires a section break before and after it - a Next Page break in each case - after which the orientation of that section alone can be changed. Simply selecting the page and changing orientation does not work without them. Orientation is set from the Layout tab, alongside margins, paper size and columns. It also affects headers and footers, which reflow to the new width, and can require the page numbering to be checked afterwards.
