Question Vertical printing


I'd like to print vertical labels on Avery 5160 but have no idea if it can even be done. Would appreciate help.

If all you want to do is rotate the text, that can easily be done via the Table Tools; otherwise you'll need to give more details of what you're trying to achieve.

Obviously, I didn't state my problem clearly.

I have a page of Avery 5160 labels (3 columns; 10 rows). These labels are wider than the notebooks. I want to rotate the page in Word (Portrait/Landscape doesn't work as the page turns but the labels don't). I want to type on the labels with the labels in a vertical position instead of horizontal so that the letters are in a straight line. Type a letter>Enter>Type a letter>enter>type a letter>enter

The Rotate you suggested doesn't work as the word does rotate but Word hyphenates the word and several letters are on each line.

I hope this explains what I'm trying to do.

If you insert the table into a textbox, you can rotate the textbox and the table will rotate with it. You will need to switch the Document out of compatibility mode first, though, if you're using that mode.
