I am using Office XP to create a multiple page document of two pages per
sheet containing English and Spanish translations. I would like the Spanish
translation to orient 180 degrees of the English translation on each page.
I've tried everything I can think of. Any ideas?
 
Using a text box, you can get the text to be displayed from top to bottom,
or bottom to top, but not the way I think you want.
 
Try using a two column table. Right click in the spanish cell and select the
text direction you want. Regards, Michael
 
Oops, Sherry518. Sorry, but that will only work for a 90 degree rotation,
not 180 degrees.
 
Your best bet is to set this up as two separate documents, one in English
and one in Spanish. Set each to print on the left side of the page (in other
words add a gutter on the right equal to half the page width). Print the
English document, give the paper a half turn and send it back through the
printer to print the Spanish.
