Rotating a Text Box

[Gerry Duggan]

Is it possible to rotate a text box? The only way I seem
to be able to rotate text is through word art. This does
not allow consistency with the font size I am using in the
main document.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Gerry

Hi Gerry,

You can rotate a text box in the most recent versions of Word
by 90 or 270 degrees. Other than that, you need to use
WordArt or import the box as a graphic (such as from a
graphics program or using Edit/Paste Special in Word,
choosing a "Picture" format such as *.jpg).
