TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
We had the exact same project dilemma a few months ago. We wanted all
headers, regardless of the paper orientation, to be at the top of the page
(the 8 1/2" side). We could not see doing it any other way other than
placing the header in a frame box.
I agree that you will need to place a section break before and after your
landscape pages. Make sure that your you click on the Same as Previous
option to uncheck it, otherwise you end up with a header on the (11") side.
It took us a while to get this done, but it turned out to be a helluva
document.
Maybe someone else knows how to accomplish this more efficiently. We need
to tackle this project again next year.
