Microsoft Word?

I am writing my own xmas cards on Microsoft Word and would like to change the direction of the text on the paper.





Instead of going up and down the page like normal. I would like to turn the text on its side. Then I can fold the paper and glue it into my cards. I hope this makes sense.





The big question is how do I do it? What should I be looking for in Microsoft Word.? So far the only way I have been able to do it is if I have the text inside a text box. The thing is I don’t want the box around my writing when I print it out. Any ideas on how I can do it would be greatly appreciated








Thanks to all.

Microsoft Word?
Well, I would do what you have been doing with the text box. Write the text in the box. Then on the drawing toolbar (you may need to go to view -%26gt;toolbars -%26gt; drawing), click the rotate button and rotate the box how you will. Then right click on the textbox, and choose format textbox. On the screen that appears, you should be in the colors and lines tab. Look in the line section. There should be an option that says color. Click the drop down box, and choose no color. This will make the border invisible so that you won't see it when you print it. Hope this helps!
Reply:You could insert your text into a one row table.


Click inside the table, select FORMAT then TEXT DIRECTION.





Check to ensure that Show Gridlines on your Table Tool Bar is off. Report It
