MS Office Forum / Word / Long Documents / March 2008landscape and portrait headers definition... in a blank template!
Hi, I've been reading tons of tutorials and MVP's tips on how to work with different header for portrait and landscape page setup (including Shauna Kelly's biblical article about portrait page numbers in landscape pages). However, it always seems to apply to normal documents, but not to templates. What if I want to create a blank template with headers for both orientations? Is it possible to change a portrait document to landscape, then to portrait and then to landscape again and still getting the first landscape header? Shouldn't this be part of a template definition? Thanks in advanced for any idea you could spare!! I also would like to sincerely thank those folks who generously use their time to publish articles like Kelly's. I have learned to use styles mainly thanks to these type of resources, and it has saved me a lot of time. Best, Gaston Well, you can certainly insert section breaks in a template the same way you do it in a document, and then format one section as landscape.

Regarding Stefan's comment, I have done that... I've created the template with the sections and 2 blank pages (in both orientations) as placeholders. But what if I want to create a template without those place holders? Specifically I want to know if, in order to provide a template with a defined header for the landscape page, is it necessary to incorporate a landscape page, or if there is a way to include that information without placing a landscape page on the template. Does it make any sense? Word can remember up to three headers/footers per section: First Page, Odd (or primary), and Even. But it remembers only the ones that are in the page orientation of a given section, so without section breaks, no I don't think you could have those headers as an *original* part of the template, but you could certainly save them as AutoText entries in the Header or Footer style, and they would be available on the AutoText menu on the Header and Footer toolbar.

That is a good idea. It woold still be necessary to insert the landscape section manually, of course (unless you are willing to include a section break in the AutoText entry, which might be somewhat of an adventure).

Correction: (unless you are willing to include *two* section breaks in the AutoText entry...)
