Both portrait and landscape orientation in same file

[megmoo75]

Hello -

Does anyone know if it is possible to have one tab with landscape orientation and one tab with portrait orientation in a single Visio file? When I change the page orientation, it changes it not just for the current tab, but for the whole Visio file.

I'm using Visio Professional 2002.

Thanks in advance!

Yes. It's possible.
In menu Tools>Options..., in General tab, turn on "Enable page rotation". Then Ok.
Select Rotation tool (Ctrl+0) and move cursor to any corner of page and holding left mouse button, rotate it to landscape orientation. Do the same with all necessary pages in document.

For a long time, it has been possible to set different page sizes and orientation in Visio, but until Visio 2003 it was not possible to print all the pages with a single print command. Before the printer had to be set up and then all the pages of that size and orientation are printed, change the printer setting and print the next page size and orientation etc.

ONe thing to watch out for is the "Same as Printer" setting on the individual Page Setup. This field should be unselected.
