You can't physically rotate text, but you can create an image of
text and
rotate that. Here's one example of doing this. Execute the
following in
your Rev message box:
go url "http://www.tactilemedia.com/site_files/downloads/textspinner.rev
"
If you want to print out the results, you could try creating your
text at 4x
the final size and then scaling down the imported text image/s to
25%. Kind
of a pain to do but should give better print results. You could do
all the
manipulation in a hidden stack if necessary.
Hope this helps.

Scott,
Thanks. This is a great utility. All the bells an whistles.
I tried to add one more element: Disembodied text, i.e. a text field
field with zero border width and opaque set to false.
Unfortunately it crashes RunRev 4.0, build 950 on my Mac running
10.5.8 every time.
Any thoughts?
Jim Hurley
