Microsoft Word Rotate Text 90

Posted : admin On 10/15/2019

Click on the Flip Horizontally to flip the text upside down; Rotate 90° to the right, and you’ll get vertical text in your Word page. Rotate Left 90° will make the text rotate 90° on to the left. Suggested next steps. Got additional related questions? Feel free to leave us a comment. Thanks for reading! Aug 10, 2018  Step 1: Open Microsoft Word. Step 2: Open an existing document in which you would like to rotate text, or create a new document. Step 3: Click the Insert tab at the top of the window. Step 4: Click the Text Box button. Step 5: Choose the Simple Text Box option. You can choose one of the other pre-formatted text box options if you prefer. On the Format tab, you will find the Rotate command (in the Arrange group to the right), and we need to click that. There are several preset options like Rotate Right 90 and Rotate Left 90, that will show you a preview if you hover over them. If you select More Rotation Options at the bottom you can specify the precise rotation you need in degrees. Activate the checkbox for it and it should appear across the bottom of the document window. As I recall, the rotate command can be found in the Drawing button's menu (far left of the toolbar). As Stefan says, not all graphical objects support rotation, especially in the older versions of Word. Click in the document and drag to draw the text box the size that you want. Click inside the text box and type or paste text. Tilt the text using any of the following steps. Note that you see the change as soon as you click outside the text box. With the insertion point in the text box, click Rotate on the Drawing Tools Format tab.

No, Word Tables cannot be rotated. You have some options, though;
  • If the table occupies a page by itself you can create Section Breaks to isolate the page & change the orientation of only that page to Landscape, or
  • You can cut the table then use Edit> Paste Special - Picture then rotate the picture.

You can insert a table into a text box. Then you can rotate the text box, which has the same effect as rotating the table.

That's certainly another option but I wouldn't rely on the stability of the document :-)
Also, the text box has to be rotated back to vertical in order to edit the table.. Depending on the table's size that can be a definite problem.

I was able to type in the cells while the table was rotated. It took careful clicking to get the cursor into a table cell.

Sorry I didn't clearly state the point -- It isn't that you can't type in the rotated table, it's just that you have to stand on your ear to read it :-)

@ Bob - LOL - I've never seen you do gymnastics. Maybe we need a phys ed or Zen session at the summit. My suggestion is to grab the green dot and rotate the table in Word rather than rotating your body on the table unless you enjoy that sort of physical activity.
