Default Word Template: Set different margins for Portrait and Landscape

Hi,
I'm developing a template with different margins for portrait oriented pages
and landscape oriented pages.
For example:
- Portrait: Top: 3cm; Bottom:3.5cm; Left: 2.7cm; Right: 1.8cm
- Landscape: Top: 3.5cm; Bottom: 2.2cm; Left: 3.20cm; Right:2.00cm

Do you know how to do that? I haven't been able to find the option that
would enable to insert a landscape-oriented page in a portrait documents with
the correct margin without having to change the margins manually.

Thanks in advance for your help.

F.

You will need to change the margins manually unless you create a macro to
insert the necessary Section Break and apply the formatting.

If you are feeling adventurous, I guess you could try using an AutoText
entry which stores a landscape section preceded and followed by a section
break.
