Rotate Answers in a Field

By default, answers in fields appear in horizontal rows and can be read from left to right. You can rotate text so answers will read from bottom to top, top to bottom, or upside-down from right to left.

To rotate text in a field

1. Edit a form template. (See Edit a Saved Form Document.)
2. Select the fields you want to rotate. (See Select a Field.)
3. Click the Field Properties button. The Field Properties dialog box appears.
4. Click the Layout tab. The view changes to show field layout properties.
5. In the Rotation group, select a degree of rotation: 0º, 90º, 180º, or 270º, for example:

When you change the rotation, HotDocs views the bottom of the letters as the bottom of the field. This means that aligning the text horizontally or vertically may have different effects.
