Any way to rotate a PAGE?

[Jeremy Button]

For viewing purposes, I need to rotate a page in Microsoft
Word 2000. I am not talking about portrait/landscape or
text rotation, I am talking about rotating a page 90
degrees. Is this possible?

Thank you so much for your help.

Jeremy

Hi, Jeremy,

If it's all text, put it in a text box or table cell (removing borders if
necessary) and use the Text Direction command on the right-click menu.

Alternatively, take a screen shot (e.g., with Alt+PrintScreen), paste it
into a graphics program, rotate it, and bring the result back into Word.

Jeremy,

As you described, you can rotate the orientation of a page
containing text to either landscape or portrait. The text
contained on the page however, follows the orientation of
the page. It sounds like you want to rotate text, without
changing the page orientation.

You can do this by placing your text within a table
without applying borders if you find them bothersome.

After placing your text in the table, right-click inside
the table and select Text direction. Pick the 90 degree
orientation that suits you, whether it be left or right.
