How to have two orientations (potrait and landscape) in the same document?

I would like to have two types of orientations (potrait and landscape) within the same document.  Is that possible and how to do it?

 

You need to insert a Section Break (go to the Page Layout tab and then expand the Breaks dropdown in the Page Setup Section and from the Section Breaks list, click on Next Page.

 

Then you can change the orientation of one Section independently of the other(s)

 

For additional information, see some of the links at:

See http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/LandscapeSection.htm. Although the article is old, most of it is still applicable. As Doug points out, section breaks are now not on the Insert tab (where you might expect to find them) but in the Page Setup section of the Page Layout tab.
