Hi,

Click on the column heading and in the properties section select the Text Flow & Justification option.
In the Writing Mode drop down menu select 'Top to bottom, right to left'.

This will enable your text to appear vertically.

Thanks,
Bobj.

Use this Script before and after the Data item.

<div id="mydiv" style="height:333; width:333;filter='progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(rotation=3)'">

<#data item>

</div>

I hope this will work.I have tested in 8.4

Hello,

Thanks for the tip.

I tested this code and it works in HTML format !

Is there a way to preserve the rotation in PDF format ?
