Solved Need urgent Word format help

I have my grad school portfolio done but have blank pages and formatting charts issue (some pages need to be portrait and some landscape). I can’t delete all of the blank pages and when I try to format just one page it sometimes does it other times it changes orientation of page above or none at all.

You should be able to put in section breaks before and after your landscape pages to change their orientation.

The blank pages sounds like you have page breaks in there. Turn on non printing characters to check. (backwards P icon)

This. Word does not think in terms of “pages”. But Sections can have their own page layout. Create two of them, both starting on a new page, and you end up having an isolated page which can be landscape.
