Vertical font

[Jonka]

Can a line of font be turned from horizontal to vertical.

I've been known to use tables and/or columns to create the effect of a
vertical font. If you make the column narrow enough and get the margins
right if will move all the text into a vertical line. It is far from
foolproof though, some letters, i.e. l, are narrower than others and so
frustrate this work around.

I am sure someone will be along soon with a much cleverer answer. Good luck.

The only way I know is nothing automatic.
This method will, however, center all letters exactly in the middle.
What you do is create a text box and type your letters with a manual line
break after each letter, then highlight all and choose Center Alignment.
All letters will be exactly centered.

If you put the text into a table or a text box, you can change the
orientation to vertical. If you don't want it to appear that it's in a box
or table, simply turn off the borders.
