How to Change the Page Orientation of a Print Job

Introduction

You can change a print job's page orientation from landscape (the paper is wider than it is tall) to portrait (the paper is taller than it is wide - this is the default orientation). These instructions are for Microsoft Windows 98. Instructions for other operating systems or versions may vary.

Tips & Warnings

  • Use landscape orientation to accommodate wide graphics or if you want to place graphics side by side.
  • Choose your orientation as you compose the page, so you can see how the page will look as you create it.
  • Not all printers will print in landscape orientation.
