How to split a page to 4 quarters in Word document?

Author Sun Last modified

In some cases, you may need to divide a page into four quarters to arrange text as shown in the screenshot below. Since Word doesn't provide a built-in feature to split a page this way, you can achieve it using a table.

Split a Word page into 4 quarters using a table

Follow the steps below to split a page into four parts using a table:

  1. Place the cursor at the top-left corner of the page. Click "Insert" > "Table", then select a 2x2 table.
    Insert > Table option on the ribbon
  2. Once the table is inserted, drag the bottom-right corner to resize it and fit the page.
    Table is inserted and resized
  3. Type your content into each of the four cells separately.
    Text inserted into table cells
  4. Select the entire table. Under "Table Tools", go to "Design" > "Borders" > "No Border" to remove the table borders.
    No Border option on the Design tab on the ribbon

The page will now appear visually split into four quarters.
