sample document not using Default page template

Flogging a dead horse here...

Unfortunately the piece that is a bit obscure working with page breaks is that
the main menu Insert -> Page-Break,  <Ctrl>+<Enter> shortcut, is by default
done without a page style. So the next page will continue with the previous
page's style (including Default 'Standard' )!

If you need to transition page layouts, you need to use the Insert -> More
Breaks -> Manual Break... button to launch the 'Insert Break' dialog.

There with radio button selection of the Page break, there is a droplist of
available page Style to select.

Anyhow, attached is a sample document demonstrating the behavior you want. For
clarity it uses a new Portrait and new Landscape page style, but using the
Default page style for Portrait also works if you use the correct page break /
w Style selection.
