Microsoft Print To PDF Option Changes Page Orientation To Portrait

Hi, Paul,

I am an Independent Advisor.

Step 1.

If this is an Acrobat PDF file, follow these steps to Convert from Portrait to Landscape.

1. Open the View menu in Adobe Reader or Acrobat. Locate the Rotate View submenu and choose either "Clockwise" or "Counterclockwise" to rotate the page view in 90-degree increments. This reorients pages from portrait to landscape, or vice versa. Although you
can't save this conversion with your document, this can ease the task of reading a file that opens in the wrong orientation.

2. Change page orientation at printing time to produce output that converts pages without altering your PDF file itself. Open the File menu, select "Print" and locate the Page Handling options. Uncheck "Auto-Rotate and Center" and click on the Page Setup button.
Change page orientations and click on the "OK" button to print your document.

3. Rotate a 3D model that appears in a PDF, CAD or modeling-program file. Click on the model with the Hand tool to activate it so you can access Acrobat's 3D tools. Use the Rotate tool in the 3D toolbar to reorient an object from portrait to landscape or vice
versa. If using Adobe Acrobat, when you turn on "Enable 3D Selection For The Hand Tool" in Acrobat's 3D preferences, you also can use the Hand tool to convert your view.

Step 2.

Using Standard or Pro version of Acrobat Reader:

1. Open the Tools menu, locate its Pages submenu and choose "Rotate" to open the Rotate Pages dialog box. Open the Direction drop-down menu and set the angle and degree of rotation to 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise, or 180 degrees. Use the Page Range
radio buttons to choose all pages or a range of pages. If you select a range, enter a starting and ending page number in the Pages entry fields. Use the Rotate drop-down menu to select even, odd, or even and odd pages. Click "OK" to convert the orientation
of your selected pages. Press "Ctrl-Z" to undo your page rotation if you choose the wrong pages, direction or amount.

2. Change the orientation of online pages that you view in a Web browser and convert to PDF with the Adobe Acrobat plug-in. Open the "Web Page Conversion Settings" dialog box in your browser and click the "Page Layout" tab. Use the "Switch to Landscape If Scaled
Smaller Than" percentage field to specify how small you must scale a portrait-mode page before the plug-in converts it to landscape. Activate the "Scale Wide Contents to Fit Page" option to convert page contents to page width.

3. Crop pages so they become wide or tall, changing their page orientation when you eliminate part of the page area. Open the Tools menu, locate its Pages submenu and choose "Crop." To reduce page dimensions by eliminating margins, activate the "Remove White
Margins" check box. To specify new dimensions for your pages, enter the amount of the original page size you want to remove from the top, bottom, left and right of the document, and specify which pages you want to crop. You can select all, define a starting
and ending page number, or restrict the operation to even-, odd-, or even- and odd-numbered pages. - Source smallbusiness.chron.com
