Rotateing text without reformating

Hi every one,
This a real basic question but for the life of me I cant remember how it's done. I need too rotate some text in AI cs5 but I dont want the text to reformat. Do I have to use the type on a path tool? If I am not mistaken there is a setting I can change or a modifier key I can push to keep the type from reflowing. Just to be clear I am trying to have type with it's basline on a vertical axis insted of horizontal. Does any one have any insight in to how this is done?

You can also do ths by dragging with both the rotate and free transform tools yyou start to drag and then hold the shift ky down to restrain the rotation to 90º
You can use the Object>Transform>Rotate as well and you can use the Effect>Distort and Transform>Transform and enter 90º for the angle
You can also use the Transform Panel and enter 90º
Most people I think use the rotate tool

Rotating text without embedding fonts - how?

No doubt same or similar question was asked and most likely answered but I could not
find anything that would match...
I want to draw column headers of my ADG vertically. So, I need rotate column text 90 degree
and adjust position.
Is it true that it can be achieved with embedded font only? If it is true how can it be done for
Unicode code, which includes ranges for Japanese, Chinese, etc characters. The size of
swf is going to be huge. Several sites like this
http://www.forestandthetrees.com/2009/06/29/rotating-text-without-embedding-fonts/
claims that they have a solution for the problem without embedding fonts.
Note: I am still using Flex 3.3 SDK with no TLF. By the way, do TLF libraries work with
3.3 SDK.?
Thanks in advance

Draw your text onto a bitmap image (or take an ImageSnapshot of a Label), then rotate the image.

The rotation for the field is based on the orientation of the field with respect tot the rotated page. You can use the form field's properties to rotate the contents of any field counterclockwise by 90, 180 or 270 degrees. I would first try 90 degrees.

Smartforms: new barcodetechnology - additional (rotated) Text

Dear community,
I've a small problem while designing a new smartform form. I want to print a code 128 and I already created it with SE73 as a "system barcode" and I also chose the "new barcode technology" and as alignment "rotated".
In my form I defined the data for the barcode and formated them with the barcode data (deined in a smartstyle). When printing the form I get the barcode as defined.
But here comes my problem: I just get the barcode without any text. Is it possible to print a rotated text among the barcode? Is it a configuration in the barcode definition, or have I got to set some printcontrols?
Please help me to solve this problem!
Many thanks in anticipition...
Christian

Please help me! is there nobody with an idea?
Hope for answers...

Why isn't my iTunes store loading properly? It lists everything in text without images, and I can't seem to access the store when I try to search for music or movies etc.

Why isn't my iTunes store loading properly? It lists everything in text without images, and I can't seem to access the store when I try to search for music or movies etc.

1) The best way to relocate the iTunes library folder is to move the entire iTunes folder with all subfolders to the new path, then press and hold down shift as start iTunes and keep holding until prompted to choose a library, then browse to the relocated folder and open the file iTunes Library.itl inside it.
If you've done something different then provide some more details about what is where and I should be able to help.
2) Purchases on the device should automatically transfer to a Purchased on <DeviceName> playlist, but it my depend a bit on whether automatic iCloud downloads are enabled. If there is a cloudy link then the transfer might not happen. You can use File > Devices > Transfer Purchases. In iTunes you should also check out iTunes Store > Quick Links > Purchased > Music > Not on this computer.
3) Backup the device, then immediately restore it. In some cases you need to add a restore as new device into that equation. Obbviously not to be attempted until you're sure all your media is in your library. See Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device should it be needed.
4) I believe there is complimentary 1 incident 90-day support with hardware purchases, but no free software support for iTunes itself. AppleCare gets you a different level of support.

How can I get an Extension's toolbar icon to display image without text (without universally affecting other icons)? How can I edit the icons text (save space)?

"From the Show dropdown menu, you can choose what to display in the toolbars: icons, text, or icons and text together. By default, Firefox shows icons only." Is there a way to choose an individual setting for a specific toolbar icon to be icon only (no text) without universally affecting all other icons on the toolbars?
Second, is there a way to edit the text on a specific toolbar button from an extension (because it occupies too much horizontal space on the toolbar due to the amount of text)? I do know how to locate the xpi file & open it with notepad, but then it's mainly code (not English) & FIND doesn't locate the button's text (to edit it).
These 2 questions should apply to Extension buttons in general. However IF it makes any difference I'm referring to the Toolbar Button in Back To Top 7.0 which says "Go to top/bottom". I'd at least like to edit out "Go to", but my questions apply to other Extension buttons too. I do realize it may be necessary to redo any fix/change each time there is an update? THANK YOU.

We use the DOM Inspector to find the IDs and Class Names of elements.

* open the browser window in the DOMi (File > Inspect <b>Chrome</b> Document) and choose the first from the list.
* click the "Find a node to inspect by clicking on it" button and use the keyboard (Alt Tab) or the Task bar to go back to the browser window (do not click in the browser window other than the title bar).
* click that element with the mouse and keep the button pressed until you see a red border to indicate the the DOMi has located that element in the DOM tree.

Missing rotated text in PDF created via FPDF

Hi guys,
I have a weird problem which is preventing some rotated text to be viewed in adobe reader, while every other reader like foxit, google pdf viewer and scrib are doing just fine!
if you create a flyer using following link
http://www.erupert.ca/classifieds/create_flyer/ad/32_1306248214
the generated PDF displays just fine in google document viewer but if I download and open the same in Adobe reader the pull tab text (text rorated 90 degrees) vanish, again the PDF is just fine in foxit reader as well!
What am I doing wrong, any ideas would be much appriciated.
Also here is the code to rotate text I'm using by extending the FPDF class
function Rotate($angle,$x=-1,$y=-1)
if($x==-1) $x=$this->x;
        if($y==-1) $y=$this->y; //echo "{$this->x} - {$this->y}";die();
        if($angle!=0) $this->_out('Q');
        $angle=$angle;
        if($angle!=0)
$angle*=M_PI/180;
$c=cos($angle);
$s=sin($angle);
$cx=$x*$this->k;
$cy=($this->h-$y)*$this->k;
$this->_out(sprintf('q %.5f %.5f %.5f %.5f %.2f %.2f cm 1 0 0 1 %.2f %.2f cm',$c,$s,-$s,$c,$cx,$cy,-$cx,-$cy));
OS: Windows Any ( >= XP)
Adobe version X (latest updates)
Thanks,
Anupam

Hello anupam,
I know this is a particularly old thread, however i thought i'd post the solution here for others who may have been searching around for a solution to this very same problem and come across this thread.
As George has correctly stated it is an issue with the unbalanced q and Q operators. I recognise the provided piece of code, it is of course a snippet from a generation class such as FPDF or TCPDF or HTML2PDF, the error occurs when the rotation is not returned to 0 before finalising the document.
i.e. You would have used something like $pdf -> Rotate(270,60,50) or $this -> Rotate(270,60,50) where 270=the degree of rotation , 60=the x coordinate , 50=the y coordinate.
Once you've completed writing all your text, lines, images, cells you need to make sure to reset the rotate i.e. $pdf -> Rotate(0) prior to Outputting the pdf to screen or saving it as a file.

How do I rotate text within a table Pages 4.3?

Does anyone know how to rotate text within a cell in a Pages 4.3 table?

You would have to use a floating text box over the cell. Make sure text wrap is turned off.

I brought second hand iphone4 but i cannot open it because the owner forgot her apple id and password, how can i reformat this without reformating my phone outside?

I brought second hand iphone4 but i cannot open it because the owner forgot her apple id and password, how can i reformat this without reformating my phone outside? what can i do to open this? its till on the set up mode

There is nothing you can do about but ask the seller for your money back. Without the previous owners applid password, you cannot activate and use that device - there is no way around that. iOS 7's Activation Lock needs to be disabled by the previous owner in order for you to use it - if they cannot (or willnot) produce the password to disable it, you have no options.
They can disable it remotely for you - see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 but not if they do not remember their own password.

Can't change rotating text on revoltion theme after I delete the menu text.

So I export a slideshow to iDVD. By default you have the revolution theme. There is text that says revolution main in the body of the menu and it says revolution main on the rotating text. There is also a button for my slideshow. So I change the revolution main text to what I want the rotating text to be then delete that text on the main menu. The rotating text then stays. But if I want to then change it, I can't see any way to do so because I deleted the button. What was it that I deleted? How do I get it back. I thought it was the title menu, so I add a new title menu button and try to change the text but the rotating text won't change. I am probably missing something simple, but I can't for the life of me figure it out.
Thanks in advance,
Brian

Why is it, after all the years with this service, my wife can't get service, send a text without a long delay from the high school she works at 4 miles away??? The phone works great in the middle of corn fields but in the dead center of town, at the high

I have been with Verizon since they started in Peoria, IL and yet to this day I don't understand why when my wife goes to work at a high school, dead in the middle of town, she has no service, can't send a text without a huge delay and can't receive phone calls? I can be out of Peoria in the middle of a corn field and I get calls without a problem, yet but within the city no service at Peoria High School or very limited. This causes the phone to drop from LTE and then eats the battery.

Service isn't guaranteed inside of buildings especially buildings filled with steel, concrete and electrical wiring. High School buildings definitely have all three.

In pages, how can I rotate text ?

In pages, how can I rotate text ?

The text needs to be in a TextBox which you can create from the ToolBar and the that can be rotated by control clicking near the top right corner of TextBox and dragging it around.
Alternatively click on the TextBox > Inspector > Metric > Rotate: enter value.

How to rotate text

I was told to restate my number's problem as I want to rotate text within a single cell. This is for grade book so the column label can be hidden along with other data.

ohsster,
I was also excited by iWorks, and I was planning to adopt it and try to wean myself from Office even before Numbers was announced. I figured I'd just use the Tables within Pages to do my spreadsheet functions, since all the same calculations are available there. After a month of working in iWork, it's obvious that it would be premature to un-install Office for Mac, but I'm still determined to make the switch and I believe that Apple will address the serious issues, like the speed problem, in short order. So, I'm still excited about being closer to shaking the Microsoft dependency.
Regarding your application, I don't know how large and complicated your design is, but I encourage you to try my suggestion just to get a feel for working with references that span sheets and tables. This, to me, is much easier in Numbers than in Excel. I tried cross-sheet referencing in Excel years ago and found it too complicated, but in Numbers it is as simple as pie. You can build your second table in the same sheet as your first table if you want to keep things close together for that phase, and then just drag the new table to a new sheet when you're done with it. To make a cell in the destination table mirror the entry in the source table, simply type an = sign in the destination cell and then click on the source cell. To replicate the reference in the first destination cell across the first row, highlight that cell and drag the fill handle across the row. Then, with the filled row highlighted, drag the fill handle down the sheet to populate as many rows as you need. This whole process takes only a few seconds. Now you have a copy of the source table that can be independently formatted, labeled and printed after you move it to it's own sheet. This is the Numbers equivalent of setting a Print Area in Excel, except on steroids.
I hope you don't give up!
Jerry
