alignment, usually in reference to points on the compass.
The placement of any object or space, such as a window, a door or a room, and its relationship to the points on a compass.
(1) Parallelism Of Fibres, Usually As A Result Of A Combing Or Attenuating Action On Fibre Assemblies Causing The Fibres To Lie Substantially Parallel To The Axis Of The Web Or Strand. (2) A Predominant Direction Of Linear Molecules In The Fine Structure Of Fibres. Note 1: In Man-made Fibres Orientation Is Usually Parallel To The Fibre Axis As A Result Of Extrusion Stretching, Or Drawing. In Natural Fibres The Predominant Direction Is Determined During Growth, For Example A Helix Around The Fibre Axis In Cotton. Note 2: Unoriented Structures Are Those In Which Orientation Is Absent. Disoriented Structures Are Those In Which Orientation Has Been Reduced Or Eliminated As A Result Of A Disrupting Treatment
The paper we normally print on is rectangular, so you have the choice of printing in Landscape (horizontal) orientation or in Portrait (vertical) orientation.
An assignment of a direction to each edge of a graph. A graph which has been given an orientation is called an oriented graph, and is a digraph.
A vector that indicates the direction of a listener or a sound source. For a listener, the orientation is the unit vector beginning at the midpoint of the line connecting the two ears and pointing straight out through the listener's nose. Compare up vector.

The direction in which a page is turned for layout and printing; the two possible orientations for letter-size paper are landscape (wide) and portrait (tall).
a satellite can spin on 3 axes, up-down, left-right, and clockwise-anticlockwise (called pitch, yaw and roll). The position of the satellite with respect to the Earth and the Sun and the direction in which the GALEX telescope is pointing determines the orientation of the satellite.
The siting of a building in relation to the points of a compass. Christian churches often are built with the altar at the east and the main entrance at the west of the structure, but there are many exceptions (including St. Peter's in Rome, which is oriented west-east). (see also axis)
direction that a surface plane faces, expressed as the azimuth and tilt angles of the plane's normal vector/ [°] Orientierung
The alignment of a transponder with respect to the reader antenna.
The direction that the surface of the PV module is pointing. It is usally expressed in a compass bearing (e.g. South-east) and a co-elevation or degrees from the Zenith (e.g. 30 degrees). The optimum orientation is South and a co-elevation approximately equal to the local latitude.
The direction that a piece or pieces of the cube are facing.
Angular distance of the direction of a scan line from the local North direction. Counted anticlockwise from North over East.
position or alignment relative to points of the compass or other specific directions
a basic biological instinct like hunger, which strongly directs us toward a behavior, eating, but which doesn't always produce the behavior-for example, during a low-fat diet (voluntary, chosen) or a famine (involuntary)
an assignment of directions to the edges of an undirected or partially directed graph
Refers to the direction in which characters are printed on a page. This direction is either portrait (upright), or landscape, in which the page is rotated 90°.
The orientation or azimuth angle describes the angle of deviation of the collector-surface from the south in the northern hemisphere (and from the north in the southern hemisphere). It is 0° when the surface is facing due south. The azimuth is positive when facing west and negative when facing east. An orientation due west corresponds to a value of +90° and an orientation due east is -90°.
The way text is displayed on a page, either vertically (portrait) or horizontally (landscape). The orientation parameters in OCR for AnyDoc allow users to ensure that text in a page reads from left to right as it is being processed, regardless of the text orientation on the page when it was scanned.
determination of direction (east, south, west, north).
Used to describe the direction of magnetization of a material. Orientation Direction - The direction in which an anisotropic magnet should be magnetized in order to achieve optimum magnetic properties.
Alignment of a tag with respect to the reader antenna
In printing, the direction of the paper. Portrait means that the paper is higher than it is wide. Landscape means that the paper is wider than it is high.
The setting in which a page will be printed. For example, portrait orientation will print normally, and landscape orientation will print the page sideways.
Printing in the direction of a sheet's long or short edge. Printing parallel to the sheet's long edge is called landscape. Printing in the direction of the sheet's short edge is called portrait.
Establishing correct relationship in direction with reference to points of the compass; the state of being in correct relationship in direction with reference to the points of the compass.
Placement with respect to the cardinal directions, N, S, E, W; azimuth is the measure of orientation from north.
Used in the Zazzle Design Program to refer to the size and location of the design space on a product. For example, when designing an apparel product, you can choose to have the design either vertically or horizontally oriented.
the compass alignment of the church. The high altar is usually oriented to the east
is the direction of the substrates width and height.
The alignment of a bar code symbol with respect to horizontal. Two possible orientations are horizontal with vertical bars and spaces (picket fence) and vertical with horizontal bars and spaces (ladder).
The direction an envelope element faces, i.e., the direction of a vector perpendicular to and pointing away from the surface outside of the element.
Settings that determine the orientation of your printout. Select between Portrait (tall) or Landscape (wide).
Refers to the direction in which characters are printed on a page. This direction is either portrait, where the length of the page is longer than its width, or landscape, where the width is longer than its length.
location or position relative to the points of a compass.
Direction or arrangement with respect to other detail or the direction in which a photograph is turned with respect to an observer or map. A single photograph is best oriented for study when turned so that the shadows are cast toward the observer.
Crystalline structure alignment in polymeric materials, producing a highly uniform structure. It can be accomplished by cold drawing or stretching.
The position of text on a page. "Tall" (portrait) orientation means the text is taller than it is wide. "Wide" (landscape) orientation means the text is wider than it is tall.
The alignment of bars and spaces to the scanner. Often referred to as vertical (picket fence) or horizontal (ladder).

Two possible bar code field orientations are horizontal with vertical bars and spaces (picket fence) and vertical with horizontal bars and spaces (ladder).
How a cell entry or chart object is positioned in a cell or chart, rotating between -90 and 90 degrees. Also refers to how text is printed on a page--across the short edge of the page (portrait) or across the long edge of the page (landscape).
The direction in which an Object is pointing. Is affected by rotating it.
The alignment of the crystalline structure in polymeric materials so as to produce a highly uniform structure. Can be accomplished by cold drawing or stretching during fabrication.
Modern seismograph stations have three separate instruments to record seismograms - (1) one to record the north-south waves, (2) another to record east-west waves, and (3) a vertical one in which a weight resting on a spring tends to stand still and record vertical ground motions. This combination of instruments tells a seismologist the general direction of the seismic wave source, the magnitude at its source, and the character of the wave motion. The orientation of a seismogram refers to the direction of the waves recorded: north-south, east-west, or vertical.

The positioning of a map so that its north line points to the Earth's true north.
The stretching technique used to obtain molecular alignment in a film during manufacturing, which increases tensile strength and stiffness and decreases tear strength.
