I am a big fan of Apple’s iWork suite of office applications. In every day use they outshine Microsoft Office for Mac in almost every way. Today I found a problem however.

In my work I am finding myself writing longer and longer reports. Some of these documents contain tables which would read much easier if they were to fit on the page in landscape. That said, the rest of the document (several to many pages in length) pretty much has to be in portrait.

In Microsoft Word 2008 you can choose a page orientation for a given section as well as document. As far as I can tell, this is not possible in Pages ‘09. This omission seems rather glaring to my relatively inexperienced mind.

If you knows that I am wrong, please let me know. If not, and anyone at Apple happens to find this, please consider this a feature request.
