Portrait to landscape...but text still stays in portrait margins

I have added a section break to a document so that I can make one of the pages in landscape orientation; however, when I change the page to landscape, the text does not continue to the end of the landscape page. To illustrate what I am talking about, I inserted an O so that you could see the break of the continuous string of f's. I want the text to continue to the edge of the landscape page, but cannot figure out what I am doing wrong.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Perhaps, this time you need to check on the columns under page lay out. Then click on One as default.

    Thank you for your prompt reply, but unfortunately, that was not the issue. See screenshot below with margins for the landscape page.

    Hi there! I am Lyn, an Independent Advisor. It is my duty to assist you in solving an issue.

    Put your cursor on the landscape page. Click on Paper Lay out then Margin. Check if the right side margin is set larger than left side. If so, you can simply resize that.
