[Hidden-tech] to 180 in Word

[Don Lesser]

You can’t flip contents of table cell 180 in Word 2003 and above, at least
on the PC version. You have to either treat it as Word Art (with the
attendant font issues) or convert it to a picture (and have to repaste it if
the content changes).

 

There is no rotate text option in Word 2003 and up, except for a Text
Direction option in text boxes, table cells, and frames that lets you choose
90, 270 and 0. No 180.

If you need plain text (Word Art is usually fancy stuff), then you can
create a one cell table and format the table to flip the text 180º.

Is it POSSIBLE to flip text 180 degrees in Word.  Don't ask why I can't use
Pshop., Ill or Indd. 

thanks
