Is the orientation of the letters sideways? If so, click on the text box, and
in your toolbar at the top, select TEXT BOX TOOLS. Select "Format" and to the
far left, you should see an option under "Text" that says "Text Direction".
Click on that to rotate your text. If the text orientation is correct (i.e.,
horizontally displayed), your text box may be too narrow for the line of
type. Expand your text box and/or minimize the text box internal margins.
Again select TEXT BOX TOOLS after clicking on text box, select "Format" and
select the option "Size" (far right). Click on the little arrow in the right
bottom corner, choose the TEXT BOX tab, and adjust the internal margins. Or
you could also check "Resize AutoShape to fit Text".
