How do I invert text using Word 2007 Vista?
Is it possible to turn some of the text in a document upside down?
The only way I've managed to do this is to print twice, turning the paper around the second time. If I put the text into a textbox I cannot rotate the textbox. Is there some way of getting selected bits of text on a page to be upside down? Hope someone can help. Thanks |

How do I invert text using Word 2007 Vista?
Thanks,
I'll try one or two of the ways suggested. I'm amazed that there isn't an easier way. Word 2007 /Vista offers so many other ways to make text look fancy/different it's dissappointing to discover that you can not simply turn text upside down. Cheers, Redditch.

Publisher can do this.

How do I invert text using Word 2007 Vista?
Can you expand on this?
I've never used publisher. Are you suggesting the entire document be created in publisher, or that just the text you want upside down be created in Publisher and then copied and paste specialed into the Word doc? This seems complicated. Lisa B. "Suzanne S. Barnhill" wrote: Publisher can do this. -- Suzanne S. Barnhill Microsoft MVP (Word) Words into Type Fairhope, Alabama USA "Redditch" wrote in message ...

How do I invert text using Word 2007 Vista?
Text can be freely rotated to any angle (including upside-down) in
Publisher. Sometimes the best solution is to do a document entirely in Publisher (especially if it will be distributed as hard copy or as a PDF). Although rotated text can be copied from Publisher and pasted as a picture, the quality is often not so great. You can copy and paste text as a picture in Word as well (and then rotate it), but again, it won't look quite like ordinary text (even worse is trying to get something that looks like ordinary text using WordArt). -- Suzanne S.
