Printing out a Visio file, with the printout respecting the Portrait or Landscape setting on each page

Question

I have a 100 slide Visio file – around 80 slides are in Portrait mode, but around 20 pages required that we switch to Landscape mode. Portrait and Landscape pages are interleaved (i.e., there is not an adjacent block of pages in one type of orientation followed by another block in the other type of orientation). I want to print the 100 slides to a PDF, with the printout respecting the portrait or landscape orientation setting on each page. The Visio print menu has a setting to select Portrait or Landscape mode. This is a concerning option, because I want the printout automatically to respect, on a slide-by-slide basis, the Portrait or Landscape setting on each respective page. I cannot find any such setting. And, if a use a 'lowest common denominator approach', which in this case would mean to select Landscape mode, the 80 Portrait slides have the wrong orientation and only occupy a portion of the page.

Hi,

I suggest you refer to this support article about Auto Size feature in Visio:
