Default Text Rotation

Word doesn't have any provision for 180 degree rotation of text.

A workaround -- if it works for you -- is to set the orientation of the page
(or whole document) to Landscape, insert a table, and then rotate some of
the cells 90 degrees clockwise and the rest of them 90 degrees
counterclockwise. The rotated text can contain merge fields.

Everything else we know about text rotation in Word is at
