Question
In my thesis I have included a number of diagrams and tables which are in landscape orientation.  How can I paginate these so that the number appears in the same place (e.g. top right hand corner of portrait document) when the pages are assembled?  I've tried revolving the diagrams through 90 degrees and putting the number in a separate text box, but it is very time consuming.  Is there a trick I'm missing?  Thanks.

Answer
If you insert section breaks in your document, you can create different headers and footers. Simply use a different header on the landscape pages that places the page number where you want it.

To set up different page numbering schemes inside your document, you need to set up SECTION BREAKS. See this tutorial:
