By default, a document uses portrait orientation, because most documents are primarily text, and text works well in this vertical format. But if your document contains something that is essentially horizontal, like tables with a lot of columns, you can change the orientation to landscape.
And the content in the document turns 90 degrees. Now with more horizontal space, you can adjust the column widths to give your table more breathing room. So as you work on a document, you can switch between the two orientations any time you want to see which one looks best with your content.
So you can think of page orientation as a way to change the frame or container where your document sits in. Like Margins. Now, watch what happens when we click Orientation and Landscape to switch to landscape. So you need to consider Margins as well as Orientation when you are deciding on a frame for your document.
Also, the size of the paper is a factor. You get a really wide frame, which works great with a wide table, but it is too wide for text. After spending a lot of time carefully, laying out your document in portrait orientation, switching to landscape could turn everything to scrambled eggs. So, when you consider all the factors that go into choosing a frame for your document, it makes sense to choose an orientation before you start.
But if you want to change later, you can. Just be prepared to spend some time on reworking the layout. In word processing and desktop publishing, the terms portrait and landscape refer to whether the document is oriented vertically or horizontally. A page with landscape orientation is wider than it is tall. Not all printers are capable of generating text in landscape mode. Landscape orientation refers to horizontal subjects or a canvas wider than it is tall.
Portrait format refers to a vertical orientation or a canvas taller than it is wide. Landscape is a horizontal orientation mode used to display wide-screen content, such as a Web page, image, document or text. Landscape mode accommodates content that would otherwise be lost when viewed to the left or right.
The two terms actually related to three different aspects of photography: orientation, genre, and camera mode. The portrait is one of the orientation types that is used in photography as well as the computing industry.
The portrait orientation is identified easily as taller height and shorter width. Portrait oriented photograph is ideally used to cover any single object with utmost clarity. Mostly used in covering a single person or any tall objects from top to bottom. Portrait orientation is widely used in making official documents. Any legal or professional document follow the portrait orientation. Your resume is in the portrait form. A portrait photograph can be easily captured by holding your cell phone straight.
As such, the pictures and videos shot in portrait mode do not give good clarity when seen in landscape mode. Portrait mode is considered to be the actual model at any circumstance. The phone we use, the lock and unlock feature is displayed in Portrait mode. When opening a word document on a computer, it opens in the portrait mode. Portrait mode is easy to navigate places using google maps. Table of contents Use landscape and portrait orientation.
