My problem is not so much “headers and footers”, it is that when I produce a document with mixed portrait and landscape sections I want the “top” of the landscape pages to be at the spine side of the document – in other words to the left. This is especially critical when I have thick bound or stapled documents and mixed text and tables. It is much easier to flip through this information (especially long tables) if the “top” of the landscape page is to the left.



Once I convert to PDF I can rotate pages, but I had hoped that Word would provide such a feature.

Thanks again for your trouble – at least I now know that I’m not missing a simple solution to the problem.

Yes, of course the problem here is that you want different things for different pages, and Word can't do that without manual intervention. As far as I know, no printer can do it automatically either.
