Rotate a page in Word?
Can I rotate a page in Word? If I change the page setup from landscape to
portrait, it changes the page only, but not its content. Is there a way to rotate a page including text.? If not, can I rotate a text box? |

When you change a page to landscape, the content *is* rotated; it's just not
displayed rotated on the screen (it would be pretty hard to type if it were). Text in tables, text boxes, and frames can be rotated 90 degrees clockwise or counter-clockwise. -- Suzanne S.

My problem is that I'm working with a binder spine template that shows two
spine inserts which are horizontal (in landscape). And you are right, it is pretty hard to type because I;ve to type "from bottom to top" rather then "from left to right". That's why I wanted to rotate the page so that it would basically have to columns and I could type the normal way. "Suzanne S.

Two separate documents. If you were using Publisher, you could have done it
in one. ;-) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Jochen_E" wrote in message ...

Sorry, not whether I understand what you're sugesting. Two documents?

Publisher is MS's desktop publishing program. It's made to do stuff like
rotating text boxes and putting graphics anywhere you want them and being creative. Word is great for word-processing but it's limited in the artsy-fartsy field. (Shoot me - that's my opinion.) -- JoAnn Paules MVP Microsoft [Publisher] "Jochen_E" wrote in message ... Sorry, not whether I understand what you're sugesting. Two documents? Publisher?
