I am revising a document originally made using Word. It is in landscape with two columns to make it easier to print. I now want it to be portrait with one column. Can I change it to this?

### Change to Portrait Orientation

1. Open your document in **Collabora Online**.
2. Go to the **Format** menu at the top.
3. Select **Page Style**.
4. In the dialog box that appears, switch to the **Page** tab.
5. Under **Orientation** , select **Portrait**.
6. Click **OK** to apply the changes.

Thanks,  
Darshan
