Most documents you create in Google Docs will use the standard portrait orientation, which is 8.5 x 11-inches. However, it may sometimes be more suitable to use the landscape orientation, especially if you want to create a brochure or poster. Luckily for you, it’s pretty simple to change the page orientation in Google Docs, though the process is a bit different between desktop and mobile. Let’s get right into it.
How to change the page orientation in Google Docs for desktop
On your desktop PC, launch your browser of choice and open Google Docs. Next, open a document and then click File in the toolbar at the top of the screen.
