How Do I Rotate the Wording in Microsoft Word?
1. Open Microsoft Word by clicking 'Start' followed by 'All Programs' and then 'Microsoft Word.'
2. Select the document in which you want to add the rotating text by clicking 'Open' from the file menu. Alternatively, create a new document by clicking 'New' from the file menu.
3. Click the 'Insert' tab followed by the 'Word Art' button
4. Select your preferred text style by clicking on its icon in the Word Art pane.
5. Click the 'Home' tab and adjust the text font size and style -- for example, you might want the text bold or underlined -- from the formatting options.
6. Type the text that you want to rotate within the dashed text box on the document page.
7. Click on the green dot above the text box with your mouse. As you move the mouse left and right, the text box rotates. The further you move the mouse in either direction, the greater the angle of rotation. Experiment until you're happy with the look of the rotated text.
8. Click on an empty space in the page to stop the rotation. Save the Word document and exit the program.
