Normally, pages in a Word document have either a portrait or a landscape orientation. Select landscape, and you’ll notice how everything after our section break has changed to horizontal. All you have to do now is go to the next page, insert another break, change the orientation back to portrait. Click on the 'Close' button to return to your document. Click on the bottom of the page where you want to insert a section break in order to separate headers. Click on the 'Insert' option and then scroll over the 'Break' option. Click on the type of section break you want to insert.
Note: This article has done its job, and will be retiring soon. To prevent 'Page not found' woes, we're removing links we know about. If you've created links to this page, please remove them, and together we'll keep the web connected.
To add a blank page to your document, click where you want the new page to begin and then on the Insert tab, click Blank Page.
Tip: Another option when you need a little space is to insert a page break. A page break won't insert a blank page but it will move whatever comes after the break to the top of the next page.
Find blank pages
If you’re formatting a complex document, you can use the Navigation Pane to find blank pages quickly.
- Click View > Navigation Pane.
- In the Navigation Pane, click Thumbnails Pane.

Use this command only is you really need a blank page in the midst of a document — that is, only if you never plan on writing on that page. You can put graphics on the page or add a table, but writing on the page leads to formatting problems.
