Problem Number 1- Upside Down text box

[coffeeking]

Hi, I print place cards for training directly from my data base. The
participants names appear on one side. I would like to replicate the
names on the other side. This would require the text to be upside down
as the placecards are folded in the middle.Unlike Word there is no
rotate function(that I can find) for the text boxes. Any ideas would
be great.

You could just print one side, and then put the paper in again upside down
and print the back side.

Assuming that's not practical, then find some upside down fonts on the web.
There are also mirror fonts, but you need a up-side down one. If you get a
upside down font, then use that in the text boxes that need to be upside
down....

Hi,

You state that it can be done in Word. How about just setting up a
Word merge document that uses your database (query) as a data source?
