I don't think Word supports this.
- Usualy watermarks are shown diagonally. If that is what you want, look up
the help files re watermarks.
-Another solution is to insert a WordArt object: you can show text
diagonally but it does not look very professional.
-Use a text box if you want to show text upside down or upside up.
- Embed and Excel sheet: Excel allows you to show text diagonally.
