Most often, texts have to be typed and printed in a word processor Word and a spreadsheet editor Excel from the office suite of Microsoft Office programs. There are different ways to rotate text vertically for the entire document or a separate part of it in these applications, several of which are listed below.
Instructions
Step 1
If you need to print a page of text vertically, you can simply change the orientation of the sheets from portrait to landscape. To do this, in the Microsoft Office Word word processor, go to the “Page Layout” tab in the menu, open the “Orientation” drop-down list in the “Page Setup” group of commands and select the “Landscape” item. After that, you can send the document for printing by calling the appropriate dialog by pressing the ctrl + p keyboard shortcut. This is done in the same way in the spreadsheet editor Microsoft Excel.
Step 2
If you need to print vertically text in an Excel table cell, first enter this text in the usual way, and then open the Orientation drop-down list in the Alignment group of commands on the Home tab of the program menu. There are seven items on this list, three of which offer different ways to print vertically. In this way, you can vertically orient not only the text of one cell, but also any selected group. In the cells of the tables of Word documents, for a similar rotation of the text in the cells, select the desired cell, then right-click it and select the "Text Direction" item in the context menu. In the window that opens, there will be two options for the vertical orientation of the text.
Step 3
In the word processor Microsoft Word there is another possibility to print vertically a part of a text document. To do this, go to the "Insert" tab in the menu and open the "Text" drop-down list in the "Text" group of commands. Select one of the options, and Word will create an object in the document, the text of which you can change. In addition, an additional tab "Working with inscriptions: Format" will be added to the menu - the program will switch to it immediately after creating the inscription.
Step 4
Click on the "Text Direction" button in the "Text" group of commands and the contents of the label will rotate 90 ° clockwise - this way you get a vertical text with a direction from top to bottom. By clicking it twice more, you can change the direction to also vertical, but opposite in direction.
