The proper, official way to complete the job is to split the A4 Word sheet into ¼ columns using the Labels option. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Open a new Word document, and from the options ribbon at the top, click on Mailings
2. In the Create section, you’ll see the Labels option. Click on it to open the Envelopes and Labels dialog box
3. Here, click on options, and from the list of choices under Product Number, select ¼ Letter
4. Click on Ok, and you’ll then be taken back to the Envelopes & Labels dialogue box
5. Click on New document, and a new file will open that will be partitioned into 4 equal-sized boxes stretching from corner to corner of the page.

Selective information can go in the appropriate corner. Your page is now divided into four portions; you can write text on each separately.

2] Split a Word page in 4 quarters by creating a 2×2 table

1. Open a new Word document and from the Insert tab, click on Table and select enter a 2×2 table.
2. To make the table span across the page and look like four quarters, drag the right and the bottom corner of the table accordingly
3. Insert texts in the rows and columns, considering them different quarters.
4. If you find the border lines too thick, you can modify them by clicking on the Design ribbon and selecting Page Borders.

This is also an easy way to make your page look like it has been divided into 4 quarters on MS Word.

What is a section break in Word?

Using Section formatting, you can apply page layouts to different sections within the document. A section break is used to divide a page into different sections. Using them, each section can be formatted independently. For example, one section may be composed of a single column, while another may have two or more.
