Page Orientation Orientation refers to the direction of print on
the page (fig.5.8). Portrait orientation reads from left to right, across
the more narrow dimension of the page. This manual is in portrait
orientation. Landscape orientation also reads from left to right but
places the print across the wider dimension of the page. This type
of printing is commonly used for spreadsheets and tables. Both
terms originated in painting; a portrait is usually a vertical view; a
landscape is usually a horizontal view.
