Printing rotated text

[Tull Clancey]

Does anyone have a solution for printing rotated text? I can't rely on
changing the printer orientation.

Thanks,
Tull.

Check out 'e.Graphics.RotateTransform'.

Inside the 'PrintDocument' object's 'PrintPage' event handler:

\\\
With e.Graphics
.TranslateTransform(...)
.RotateTransform(90)
.DrawString("Hello World!", Me.Font, Brushes.Blue, 0, 0)
End With
///

Check out the FormatFlags property of the StringFormat Class which can be
used with DrawString.
